Dual role of tropomyosin on chemically modified actin filaments from skeletal muscle.

abstract：:Low density lipoproteins are highly sensitive to oxidation by copper salts, and such peroxidation is accompanied by macrophage scavenger receptor recognition. This study shows that fresh human atherosclerotic material (aneurysms and endarterectomies) can contain detectable amounts of redox active iron and copper that ...
