Defining functional classes of Barth syndrome mutation in humans [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
The X-linked disease Barth syndrome (BTHS) is caused by mutations in TAZ; TAZ is the main determinant of the final acyl chain composition of the mitochondrial-specific phospholipid, cardiolipin.

Osmotic shock stimulates de novo synthesis of two cardiolipins in an extreme halophilic archaeon

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 2004
The present report illustrates the response to osmotic stress of an extreme halophilic archaeon, Halorubrum sp., isolated from the saltern ponds of Margherita di Savoia in southern Italy.

Oxidative Stress Linked Organ Lipid Hydroperoxidation and Dysregulation in Mouse Model of Nonalcoholic Steatohepatitis: Revealed by Lipidomic Profiling of Liver and Kidney

open access: yesAntioxidants, 2021
Nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) is a prevalent disease related to lipid metabolism disorder and oxidative stress. Lipid hydroperoxidation is known to be a critical driving force of various disorders and diseases.

Diminished exercise capacity and mitochondrial bc1 complex deficiency in tafazzin-knockdown mice.

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2013
The phospholipid, cardiolipin, is essential for maintaining mitochondrial structure and optimal function. Cardiolipin-deficiency in humans, Barth syndrome, is characterized by exercise intolerance, dilated cardiomyopathy, neutropenia and 3-methyl ...

Recent advances in expanding the coverage of the lipidome [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The lipidome comprises a large array of molecules with diverse physicochemical properties. Lipids are structural components of cells, act as a source of energy, and function as signaling mediators.

Structure of a mitochondrial ATP synthase with bound native cardiolipin

open access: yeseLife, 2019
The mitochondrial ATP synthase fuels eukaryotic cells with chemical energy. Here we report the cryo-EM structure of a divergent ATP synthase dimer from mitochondria of Euglena gracilis, a member of the phylum Euglenozoa that also includes human parasites.

Mouse mitochondrial lipid composition is defined by age in brain and muscle [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Functionality of the lipid rich mitochondrial organelle declines with increased age. Recent advances in lipidomic technologies allowed us to perform a global characterisation of lipid composition in two different tissue types and age ranges.

LL‐37 Driven Phase Transition and Stacking in Oligolamellar Gram‐Negative Bacterial Membrane Models

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This work establishes oligolamellar bacterial membrane models to investigate how LL‐37 disrupts the complex dual‐bilayer architecture of Gram‐negative bacteria. Combining SAXS, cryo‐TEM, electrophoretic mobility measurements, and coarse‐grained simulations, it reveals cardiolipin‐driven phase transitions leading to bicelle‐like structures and membrane ...

Nature‐Inspired Surface Modification Strategy Reverses the Autophagic Flux Impairment of Mitochondrial Transplantation for Attenuating Ischemic Strokes

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
The functionalized starch modifies the mitochondrial surface and encapsulates resveratrol into the cavity of helices, facilitating a novel mitochondrial transplantation platform (MLSR). Upon internalization in recipient cells, MLSR triggers mitophagy and maintains positive autophagic flux through RIP1/RIP3 pathway inhibition.
