25. Genes for phycocyanin subunits in Synechocystis sp. strain PCC 6701 and assembly mutant UV16.
The cyanobacterial phycobilisome is a large protein complex located on the photosynthetic membrane. It harvests light energy and transfers it to chlorophyll for use in photosynthesis. Phycobilisome assembly mutants in the unicellular cyanobacterium Synechocystis sp. strain 6701 have been characterized. One such mutant, UV16, contains a defect in the assembly

26. The epitopes for some antiphospholipid antibodies are adducts of oxidized phospholipid and β2 glycoprotein 1 (and other proteins)
Circulating autoantibodies to phospholipids (aPLs), such as cardiolipin (CL), are found in patients with antiphospholipid antibody syndrome (APS). We recently demonstrated that many aPLs bound to CL only after it had been oxidized (OxCL), but not to a reduced CL analogue that could not undergo oxidation. We now show that the neoepitopes recognized by some aP

27. Increased sphingomyelin content of plasma lipoproteins in apolipoprotein E knockout mice reflects combined production and catabolic defects and enhances reactivity with mammalian sphingomyelinase.
Apolipoprotein E knockout (apoE0) mice accumulate atherogenic remnant lipoproteins in plasma. We now provide evidence that these particles are enriched in sphingomyelin (SM), and explore the mechanisms and possible pathophysiological consequences of this finding. The phosphatidylcholine/sphingomyelin (PC/SM) ratio was reduced in all lipoproteins in apoE0 mic
