Figure 1.
Curvature-dependent binding of CRP to LPP mimics. CRP and LPP mimics were incubated with either (A) 250 μM CaCl2 or (B) 5 mM EDTA for 30 min before electrophoresis. Photographs of the gel with (A, i) 250 μM CaCl2 or (B, i) 5 mM EDTA after electrophoresis. Western blots of the gels with (A, ii) CaCl2 or (B, ii) EDTA. Superimposed images of the gels with (A, iii) 250 μM CaCl2 or (B, iii) 5 mM EDTA with their respective Western blots, showing the overlapping regions of LPP mimics and CRP. PC = PC liposomes.
