Apolipoprotein A-I Milano: sex-related differences in the concentration and composition of apoA-I- and apoB-containing lipoprotein particles.

The presence of apolipoprotein (apo) A-IMilano (A-IM) mutant of apoA-I has a marked effect on plasma lipoproteins of A-IM carriers including variable hypertriglyceridemia, increased levels of very low density lipoproteins (VLDL), slightly elevated levels of triglyceride-enriched low density lipoproteins (LDL) and greatly reduced levels of high dens

Role of flagella and type four pili in the co-migration of Burkholderia terrae BS001 with fungal hyphae through soil

Abstract Burkholderia terrae BS001 has previously been found to be able to disperse along with growing fungal hyphae in soil, with the type-3 secretion system having a supportive role in this movement.In this study, we focus on the role of two motility- and adherence-associated appendages, i.e.type-4 pili (T4P) and flagella.Electron microcopy and m
