Recombinant Human Phosphatidyl

Measurement of Phosphatidylinositol and Phosphatidylcholine Binding and Transfer Activity of the Lipid Transport Protein PITP

metabolism, lipid signaling, and membrane traffic. Phosphatidylinositol transfer proteins (α and β) are lipid transport proteins that specifically bind phosphatidylinositol or phosphatidylcholine in their hydrophobic cavity and facilitate their transfer

Methods for Producing Recombinant Human Cellular Retinaldehyde-Binding Protein

The cellular retinaldehyde-binding protein (CRALBP) is expressed at high levels in vertebrate visual trssue, where it may serve to modulate the interaction of 11-cis -retinol with visual-cycle enzymes in the retinal pigment epithelium (RPE

Phosphatidylinositol Synthase Activity from Plant Membrane Fractions and from E. coli- Expressed Recombinant Peptides

or the purified protein in reconstituted lipid vesicles as a source of enzyme. More recently the specificities in terms of substrate preferences have also been studied using the recombinant protein expressed in Escherichia coli . This chapter deals
