Title: [Protein-lipid interactions during lipid peroxidation in photoreceptor membranes]. Author: Novikov KN, Kagan VE, Shvedova AA, Kozlov IuP. Journal: Biofizika; 1975; 20(6):1039-42. PubMed ID: 1081883. Abstract: It has been shown that chemical modification of hydrophobic lipid phase (lipoperoxidation) of outer segments membrane discs of frog retina rods brings about weakening protein-lipid interactions in the photoreceptor membrane. As a result of this extraction of rhodopsin with anion detergent (sodium cholate) in the concentrations not exceeding the critical concentration of micelloformation increases, and spontaneous release of rhodopsin into water phase is observed. At the same time the number of phospholipid molecules extracted in lipoprotein rhodopsin complex from the membranes of outer segments decreases 3-4-fold.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
