  • (17) When detergent-dispersed LA was contaminated with linoleic acid hydroperoxide (LOOH), lipid peroxidation was catalyzed by Fe2+ via reductive cleavage of LOOH (LOOH-Fe2+-induced lipid peroxidation), and Fe2+ was oxidized simultaneously in SDS micelles, even when H2O2 was not present.
  • (18) The two forms show no differences other than those consistent with binding of detergent micelles to the hydrophobic moiety present on membrane form surface glycoprotein.
  • (19) In addition to rapid motions, slow motions were detected by 1H spin-lattice relaxation time in the rotating frame (TH1 rho) and cross-polarization time (TCH), together with data from static spectra, indicating that the aliphatic portion of the detergent interacts more strongly with hydrophobic protein surfaces than do the polar heads.
