Figure 1: The formation of lipid droplets. Among the proteins that have been identified on LDs are several that are intimately linked to vesicular transport, membrane fusion and cytoskeletal motility.
Lipids are the main component of cellular membranes. They are highly diverse in structure, and the distribution of different lipids and their species (membrane lipid composition) varies at the ...
Lipid-binding sites and properties were compared in the hetero-oligomeric cytochrome (cyt) b₆f and the yeast bc₁ complexes that function, respectively, in photosynthetic and respiratory electron ...
Lipids are fatty molecules that play critical roles in cell function, including membrane structure, energy storage and ...
New understandings of how lipids function within tears could lead to better drugs for treating dry eye disease. A new approach has given Hokkaido University researchers insight into the synthesis and ...
So far, it has been difficult to analyze the functions of lipid molecules in living cells. Researchers have now developed chemical tools that can be activated by light and used to influence lipid ...

Multidrug resistance (MDR) is a major obstacle in cancer therapy. It results from different mechanisms; among them is P-glycoprotein (P-gp)-mediated drug efflux out of cells. The mechanism of action ...
Thyroid hormones are amino acid-based molecules produced by the thyroid gland. Involved in direct or indirect regulation of key metabolic pathways, these molecules play critical roles in the ...
