Abstract:
Abstract Glycerol ether lipid distributions have been developed as proxies for reconstructing past environmental change or, in their intact polar form, for fingerprinting the viable microbial community composition. However, due to their structural complexity, full characterization of glycerol ether lipids requires separate protocols for the analysis of the polar head groups and the alkyl chain moieties in core ether lipids. As a consequence, the valuable relationship between core ether lipid composition and specific polar head groups is often lost; this limits understanding of the diversity of

A lipid droplet (LD) core of a cell consists mainly of neutral lipids, triacylglycerols and/or steryl esters (SEs). The structuration of these lipids inside the core is still under debate.

LD imaging in their native state and in unaltered cellular environments appears essential to overcome these possible technical pitfalls. Here, imaging techniques for ultrastructural study of native LDs in cellulo are provided and it is shown that LDs are organized structures. Cry

In plants, lipids function in a variety of ways. Lipids are a major component of biological membranes and are used as a compact energy source for seed germination.

The metabolism of fatty acids and triacylglycerols is well studied in most Arabidopsis model plants by forward and reverse genetics methods.

Lipids are of one of the four basic types of molecules of life and its derivatives serve diverse functions in the body. Generally acclaimed functions of lipids include shock absorption and insulation, and energy storage of the body. Phospholipids and cholesterol form the integral part of cell membrane. In addition cholesterol serves as the precursor for bile salts, male and female sex hormones, vitamin D and adrenocortical hormones. Complex lipids consist of neutral lipid core of cholesterol esters and or triacylglycerol and proteins are the chylomicrons, VLDL, LDL and HDL which serve as the c

Control of lipid droplet (LD) nucleation and copy number are critical, yet poorly understood, processes. We use model peptides that shift from the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) to LDs in response to fatty acids to characterize the initial steps of LD formation occurring in lipid-starved cells. Initially, arriving lipids are rapidly packed in LDs that are resistant to starvation (pre-LDs). Pre-LDs are restricted ER microdomains with a stable core of neutral lipids. Subsequently, a first round of “emerging” LDs is nucleated, providing additional lipid storage capacity. Finally, in proportion to lip

Lipid droplets are cytoplasmic microscale organelles involved in energy homeostasis and handling of cellular lipids and proteins. The core structure is mainly composed of two kinds of neutral lipids, triglycerides and cholesteryl esters, which are coated by a phospholipid monolayer and proteins. Despite the liquid crystalline nature of cholesteryl esters, the connection between the lipid composition and physical states is poorly understood.

A properly designed nanosystem aims to deliver an optimized concentration of the active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) at the site of action, resulting in a therapeutic response with reduced adverse effects.

Amphiphilic compounds with distinct apolar and polar parts are readily intercalated into the erythrocyte membrane. When intercalated into the membrane, amphiphiles are probably orientated so that the polar head is at the polar-apolar interface of the lipid bilayer and the hydrophobic part within the apolar core of the bilayer. However, by virtue of their difference in molecular shape from the bulk lipids of the lipid bilayer, it is possible that the intercalated amphiphiles are partly segregated from bulk lipids and accumulate at protein-lipid interfaces in the bilayer, where the packing of th

Apolipoproteins are critical structural and functional components of lipoproteins, which are large supramolecular assemblies composed predominantly of lipids and proteins, and other biomolecules such as nucleic acids. A signature feature of apolipoproteins is the preponderance of amphipathic α-helical motifs that dictate their ability to make extensive non-covalent inter- or intra-molecular helix–helix interactions in lipid-free states or helix–lipid interactions with hydrophobic biomolecules in lipid-associated states.
