Proximity proteomics reveals a mechanism of fatty acid transfer at lipid droplet-mitochondria- endoplasmic reticulum contact sites

open access: yesNature Communications
Membrane contact sites between organelles are critical for the transfer of biomolecules. Lipid droplets store fatty acids and form contacts with mitochondria, which regulate fatty acid oxidation and adenosine triphosphate production.

Riboflavin-photosensitized lipid oxidation in oil-in-water nanoemulsions: effects of oxygen scavengers and metal chelator

open access: yesFrontiers in Nutrition
This study examined how droplet size affects riboflavin-photosensitized lipid oxidation in oil-in-water emulsions and evaluated the roles of sodium azide (SA), superoxide dismutase (SOD), and ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA) under light exposure. A

Characterization of the Drosophila lipid droplet subproteome. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Lipid storage droplets are universal organelles essential for the cellular and organismal lipometabolism including energy homeostasis. Despite their apparently simple design they are proposed to participate in a growing number of cellular processes ...

Hyperactive ice‐binding proteins stabilize cell membranes and improve resistance to dehydration stress in Caenorhabditis elegans

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
TisIBP8, a fungal‐derived hyperactive ice‐binding protein, helps Caenorhabditis elegans survive dehydration. It localizes near cell membranes, reduces cell damage, and helps maintain membrane structure during drying. These results suggest that ice‐binding proteins can protect cells from dehydration stress as well as freezing stress.

Mechanism of lipid droplet formation by the yeast Sei1/Ldb16 Seipin complex

open access: yesNature Communications, 2021
Lipid droplet biogenesis is orchestrated by the conserved membrane protein Seipin via an unknown mechanism. Here, the authors use structural, biochemical and molecular dynamics simulation approaches to reveal the mechanism of lipid droplet formation by ...

The life cycle of lipid droplets [PDF]

open access: yesCurrent Opinion in Cell Biology, 2015
Proteomic studies have revealed many potential functions of cytoplasmic lipid droplets, and recent activity has confirmed that these bona fide organelles are central not only for lipid storage and metabolism, but for development, immunity, and pathogenesis by several microbes.

ATG14 plays a critical role in hepatic lipid droplet homeostasis

open access: yes, 2023
Background & aims: Autophagy-related 14 (ATG14) is a key regulator of autophagy. ATG14 is also localized to lipid droplet; however, the function of ATG14 on lipid droplet remains unclear.

Effects of IGFBP4 deficiency on human preadipocyte proliferation and differentiation through the IGF1R/AKT pathway

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
IGFBP4 knockdown (KD) impairs preadipocyte proliferation and is associated with IGF1R protein downregulation and attenuated AKT phosphorylation. The mechanisms by which IGFBP4 KD influences the IGF1R/AKT signaling pathway involve newly synthesized proteins and lysosomal degradation pathways. Created in BioRender.

MagmaFlow: A desktop platform for artificial intelligence‐driven expression analysis

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
MagmaFlow is a free, no‐code platform for gene expression analysis. It generates interactive volcano plots, links genes to literature, pathways, and diseases, prioritizes candidates using millions of publications, identifies affected biological processes, builds network diagrams, and exports publication‐ready figures and reports for macOS and Windows ...
