SDS-PAGE
R: 5µg reduced Recombinant Human ApoE2 (Leinco Prod. No.: A440)
NR: 5µg non-reduced Recombinant Human ApoE2 (Leinco Prod. No.: A440)
Western Blot
Purified Recombinant ApoE2 (Leinco Prod. No.: A440) was separated on SDS-PAGE under both reducing and non-reducing conditions and probed with an anti-ApoE antibody.
Direct binding of anti-ApoE antibody to Recombinant Human ApoE2 (Leinco Prod. No.: A440)
Binding was measured by ELISA. Recombinant Human ApoE2 was immobilized at 1 µg/mL. Anti-ApoE antibody was titrated.
Functional binding of Recombinant Human VLDLR to Recombinant Human ApoE2 (Leinco Prod. No.: A440)
Binding was measured by ELISA. Recombinant Human VLDLR was immobilized at 1 µg/mL. Recombinant Human ApoE2 protein was titrated. Anti-ApoE antibody was used for detection.

Background

Apolipoprotein E (ApoE) is a 299 amino acid protein, produced by the liver and circulating macrophages, that is a constituent of every plasma lipoprotein except the smallest low density lipoproteins (LDL). It is a key player in the recycling and redistribution of lipids and cholesterol. ApoE is a ligand with a high affinity for low density lipoprotein receptors (LDLR). It regulates the activity of enzymes that metabolize lipids and also make lipids soluble. Mice and humans that lack ApoE cannot remove excess lipoproteins from the plasma and have an increased risk of atherosclerosis. Defective binding of ApoE to its receptors will lead to accumulation of cholesterol-rich lipoprotein particles in the plasma; this is the cause of type III hyperlipoproteinemia. There are three main isoforms of ApoE all products of alleles at a single gene locus: E2 (Cys112, Cys158), E3 (Cys112, Arg158), and E4 (Arg112, Arg158).
