abstract：:The oxidation of an elastin substrate by highly purified bovine aortic lysyl oxidase (LO) is markedly influenced by amphiphilic molecules known to bind to elastin. Negatively charged elastin ligands, including fatty acids, bile salts or sodium dodecyl sulfate can completely inhibit the oxidation of lysine in elastin, ...
