Hello,

	I have recently been reading a lot about lipofuscin - the ubiquitous
aging pigment which is found in many aging organisms.  What is the most up-to-date
info. on the content of this pigment and its source?  I heard somewhere that
a large fraction of the pigment was made up of a component of the mitochondrial
ATP synthase.  Is this correct?
