Figure 6

Dimerization of apoE3 by disulfide bonds causes the difference in apoE isoform-specific binding affinity. EM and apoE3 (or apoE4) were incubated in the presence or absence of 5% β-mercaptoethanol for 1 h and EM-PC concentrations and the number of apoE molecules in the apoE-EM complex was determined as described in the Experimental Procedures. Data are means ± S.E. of three samples. *p < 0.001. Three independent experiments showed similar results.
