Interaction of lipid-transport proteins from Nigella sativa seeds with lipid membranes

Three pure lipid-transport proteins (LTPs) were isolated from Nigella sativa seeds. The effects of the three LTPs on release of ANTS probe from the inner volume were studied using fluorescence in liposomes of different lipid composition. It was shown that all LTPs had a dose-dependent effect on the liposome permeability.
