Calcium-Independent Inhibition of PCSK9 by Affinity-Improved Variants of the LDL Receptor EGF(A) Domain

LDL (low‐density lipoprotein) receptor (LDLR) binds to its negative regulator proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9 (PCSK9) through the first EGF (epidermal growth factor‐like) domain [EGF(A)]. The isolated EGF(A) domain is a poor antagonist due to its low affinity for PCSK9. To improve bind...
