COVER: Computer modeling of an oxidized phospholipid interacting with the LOX-1 hydrophobic
tunnel. The existence of an sn-2 carboxylic acid group and its distance to the positively
charged trimethylammonium are critical to the binding of oxidized phospholipids to
LOX-1 surface. Orange and blue colors represent protein hydrophobic and polar surface
areas, respectively (see Francone et al., p. 546)....Show more
