Maggie Mays

No thumbnail sketch of the UK linker market s early days would be complete without a mention of the one-off innovation of an index-linked convertible gilt, nicknamed the Maggie Mays. The 2% Index-Linked 1999 was convertible into a nominal bond (10.25% 1999) at three future conversion dates. At a time when inflation remained volatile, and with the term to option expiry spanning a general election whose outcome was uncertain, seldom has so much optionality been sold so cheaply. The bonds were all (or almost all) converted.

More and more evidence supports the idea that acid hydrolases are associated with membranes of endoplasmic reticulum where they may act in large part ag the structural protein of membrane. This hypothesis was formulated by Fishman and co-workers in 1967 and has been supported by additional study from his laboratory and other laboratories. For example, Beck and Tappel (1968) have shown the membrane association of /J-gluco-sidase Sloat and Allen (1969) as well as Maggi (1968) and her collaborators in Kngland have demonstrated membrane-associated acid phosphatase.
