Features and Possible Applications of Plant Lipid-Binding and Transfer Proteins [PDF]
Membranes, 2022 In plants, lipid trafficking within and inside the cell is carried out by lipid-binding and transfer proteins. Ligands for these proteins are building and signaling lipid molecules, secondary metabolites with different biological activities due to which ...

Lipid binding domains: more than simple lipid effectors
Journal of Lipid Research, 2009 The spatial and temporal regulation of lipid molecules in cell membranes is a hallmark of cellular signaling and membrane trafficking events. Lipid-mediated targeting provides for strict control and versatility, because cell membranes harbor a large ...

Lactoferrin is a lipid A-binding protein [PDF]
Infection and Immunity, 1994 Lactoferrin (LF), a cationic 80-kDa protein present in polymorphonuclear leukocytes and in mucosal secretions, is known to have antibacterial effects on gram-negative bacteria, with a concomitant release of lipopolysaccharides (LPS, endotoxin).

Lipids and Lipid-Binding Proteins in Selective Autophagy
Journal of Molecular Biology, 2020 Eukaryotic cells have the capacity to degrade intracellular components through a lysosomal degradation pathway called macroautophagy (henceforth referred to as autophagy) in which superfluous or damaged cytosolic entities are engulfed and separated from the rest of the cell constituents into double membraned vesicles known as autophagosomes ...

Novel Roles of SH2 and SH3 Domains in Lipid Binding
Cells, 2021 Signal transduction, the ability of cells to perceive information from the surroundings and alter behavior in response, is an essential property of life. Studies on tyrosine kinase action fundamentally changed our concept of cellular regulation.
