We describe the production of stable DPPC and DPPC:DPPS-proteoliposomes harboring annexin V (AnxA5) and tissue-nonspecific alkaline phosphatase (TNAP) and their use to investigate whether the presence of AnxA5 impacts the kinetic parameters for hydrolysis of TNAP substrates at physiological pH. The

Atherosclerosis remains the leading cause of death in Western countries. Dipeptidyl peptidase (DPP) 4 has emerged as a novel target for the prevention and treatment of atherosclerosis. Family members DPP8 and 9 are abundantly present in macrophage-rich regions of atherosclerotic plaques, and DPP9 in

Cytochrome c (Cyt c) is an essential component of the inner mitochondrial respiratory chain because of its function of transferring electrons. The feature is closely related to the interaction between Cyt c and membrane lipids. We used Langmuir-Blodgett monolayer technique combined with AFM to study
