WMF, wavelength of maximum fluorescence; PB, phosphate buffer.

^aANS fluorescence in the presence of 0.05 mg/ml WT or the elongation variants of apoA-I or BSA or in phosphate buffer alone. Values in parentheses show change in WMF compared with ANS fluorescence in phosphate buffer alone.

^bANS fluorescence intensity in relative units compared with the fluorescence in the presence of WT apoA-I.

^cANS fluorescence intensity in relative units compared with the fluorescence in the buffer alone.
