The Regulatory Roles of Cerebellar Glycosphingolipid Microdomains/Lipid Rafts [PDF]
Lipid rafts are dynamic assemblies of glycosphingolipids, sphingomyelin, cholesterol, and specific proteins which are stabilized into platforms involved in the regulation of vital cellular processes. Cerebellar lipid rafts are cell surface ganglioside microdomains for the attachment of GPI-anchored neural adhesion molecules and downstream signaling ...

Function of Platelet Glycosphingolipid Microdomains/Lipid Rafts [PDF]
Lipid rafts are dynamic assemblies of glycosphingolipids, sphingomyelin, cholesterol, and specific proteins which are stabilized into platforms involved in the regulation of vital cellular processes. The rafts at the cell surface play important functions in signal transduction.

Nuclear lipid microdomains regulate cell function [PDF]
The lipids present in the nuclei play different roles in relation to their localization. They are composed by high levels of phosphatidylcholine and sphingomyelin strongly linked with cholesterol. The nuclear lipid composition shows many modifications during cell life due to the presence and activity of some specific enzymes such as sphingomyelinase ...

Microdomain forming proteins in oncogenesis
Lipid rafts are lateral assembles of cholesterol, sphingomyelin, glicosphingolipids and specific proteins within cell plasma membrane. These microdomains are involved into a number of important cellular processes including membrane rearrangement, protein

Microlipophagy (µLP), degradation of lipid droplets (LDs) by microautophagy, occurs by autophagosome-independent direct uptake of LDs at lysosomes/vacuoles in response to nutrient limitations and ER stressors in Saccharomyces cerevisiae.

Anionic lipids enriched at the ExPortal of Streptococcus pyogenes [PDF]
The ExPortal of Streptococcus pyogenes is a membrane microdomain dedicated to the secretion and folding of proteins. We investigated the lipid composition of the ExPortal by examining the distribution of anionic membrane phospholipids. Staining with 10-N-

The formation of hepatic bile requires that water be transported across liver epithelia. Rat hepatocytes express three aquaporins (AQPs): AQP8, AQP9, and AQP0. Recognizing that cholesterol and sphingolipids are thought to promote the assembly of proteins

Functional consequences of sphingomyelinase-induced changes in erythrocyte membrane structure. [PDF]
Inflammation enhances the secretion of sphingomyelinases (SMases). SMases catalyze the hydrolysis of sphingomyelin into phosphocholine and ceramide.

Lipid droplets in stress protection: distinct mechanisms of lipid droplet microautophagy
Lipid droplets (LDs) are organelles that function as sites for lipid storage. LDs have also been implicated in the cellular response to proteotoxic or lipotoxic stress as sites for sequestering dysfunctional or excess proteins or lipids, and targeting ...
