Formation of nitrated lipoproteins (NT-HDL and NT-LDL) under the influence of myeloperoxidase (MPO) activity. Nitrated lipoproteins are characterized by the presence of 3-NT-Tyr in the polypeptide chains of apolipoprotein A-I (apoA-I) and apolipoprotein B (apoB), respectively, resulting in the formation of nitrated apoA-I (NT-apoA-I) and nitrated apoB (NT-apoB), respectively.
