We describe sensitive new approaches for detecting and quantitatingprotein–lipid interactionsusinganalytical ultra-centrifugation and continuous size-distribution analysis [Schuck (2000)Biophys. –1619]. The newmethods were developed to investigate the binding of human apo-lipoprotein E (apoE) isoforms to size-fractionated lipid emulsions, and demonstrate that apoE3 binds preferentially tosmall lipidemulsions,whereas apoE4exhibits apreference for large lipid particles. | Eur.

J. 78 1606-1619 . The newmethods were developed to investigate the binding of human apolipoprotein E apoE isoforms to size-fractionated lipid emulsions and demonstrate that apoE3 binds preferentially to small lipid emulsions whereas apoE4 exhibits a preference for large lipid particles. Although the apparent binding affinity for large emulsions is similar Kd w M the maximum binding capacity for apoE4 is significantly higher than for apoE3 cud amino acids per phosphoiipid. respectively . This indicates that apoE4 has a smaller binding footprint at saturation. We propose that apoE isoforms differentiate between lipid surfaces on the basis of size and that these differences in lipid binding are due to a greater propensity of apoE4 to adopt a more compact closed conformation. Implications for the role of apoE4 in blood lipid transport and disease are discussed. Keywords Alzheimer s disease apolipoprotein E open conformation lipid binding analytical ultracentrifugation. Traditional methods for monitoring protein-lipid interactions have employed a variety of lipid systems including emulsions phospholipid vesicles and phospholipid micelles 1-6 . However the methodologies and heterogeneity of lipids employed in these studies do not allow a thorough investigation into the effect of particle size on protein binding. This may
