WMF, wavelength of maximum fluorescence; PB, phosphate buffer.
ANS 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.
ANS fluorescence intensity in relative units compared with the fluorescence in the presence of WT apoA-I.
ANS fluorescence intensity in relative units compared with the fluorescence in the buffer alone.
