Human CD59 is a small membrane-bound glycoprotein that functions as an inhibitor of the membrane-attack complex (MAC) of the complement system by binding the complement proteins C8 and C9. The crystal structure of a soluble construct of CD59 has been determined to 2.1 A resolution. When compared wit

Recent work on the domain organization of the thylakoid is reviewed and a model for the thylakoid of higher plants is presented. According to this model the thylakoid membrane is divided into three main domains: the stroma lamellae, the grana margins and the grana core (partitions). These have diffe
## Abstract The intimate association of the Golgi apparatus with cilia suggests a functional alliance. To explore the relationship between the synthesis and processing of membrane constituents and the turnover or regeneration of cilia, parallel cultures of gastrulaβstage sea urchin embryos were pul
