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 Proteins from Parasitic Platyhelmithes [PDF]
Frontiers in Physiology, 2012 Two main families of lipid binding proteins have been identified in parasitic Platyhelminthes: hydrophobic ligand binding proteins (HLBPs) and fatty acid binding proteins (FABPs). Members of the former family of proteins are specific to the Cestoda class,

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 ...

Do Lipids Influence Gastrointestinal Processing: A Case Study of Major Soybean Allergen Gly m 4
Membranes, 2021 Previously, we have demonstrated that Gly m 4, one of the major soybean allergens, could pass through the Caco-2 epithelial barrier and have proposed a mechanism of sensitization.

μ-calpain binds to lipid bilayers via the exposed hydrophobic surface of its Ca2+-activated conformation [PDF]
, 2006 μ- and m-calpain are cysteine proteases requiring micro- and millimolar Ca2+ concentrations for their activation in vitro. Among other mechanisms, interaction of calpains with membrane phospholipids has been proposed to facilitate their activation by ...

Cholesterol metabolism is altered in Rett syndrome: A study on plasma and primary cultured fibroblasts derived from patients [PDF]
, 2014 Rett (RTT) syndrome is a severe neurological disorder that affects almost exclusively females. Several detectable mutations in the X-linked methyl-CpG-binding protein 2 gene (MECP2) are responsible for the onset of the disease.
