Energetics of lipid transport by the ABC transporter MsbA is lipid dependent [PDF]
AbstractThe ABC multidrug exporter MsbA mediates the translocation of lipopolysaccharides and phospholipids across the plasma membrane in Gram-negative bacteria. Although MsbA is structurally well characterised, the energetic requirements of lipid transport remain unknown. Here, we report that, similar to the transport of small-molecule antibiotics and

Lipid Transport and Metabolism at the Blood-Brain Interface: Implications in Health and Disease
Many prospective studies have shown that a diet enriched in omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (n-3 PUFAs) can improve cognitive function during normal aging and prevent the development of neurocognitive diseases.

The lucigenin assay: measuring anion transport in lipid vesicles [PDF]
Synthetic anion transporters are developed to transport anions across lipid membranes with the long-term perspective of biological applications. The lucigenin assay is a popular tool to study their transport of chloride and other anions in liposomes.

Lipid transport in kwashiorkor [PDF]
1. In an attempt to elucidate the pathogenic mechanism of the fatty liver of kwashiorkor some aspects of lipid metabolism were studied in ten patients with kwashiorkor and nine with marasmus, so classified according to the clinical and laboratory findings.2.

Transport outlook 2009: Globalisation, crisis and transport [PDF]
This second ITF Transport Outlook continues building towards a full-fledged Transport Outlook, building upon the first Outlook (JTRC, 20081). The 2008 Outlook investigated the relation between expected GDP evolution and the demand for road transport ...

Exon 9-deleted CETP inhibits full length-CETP synthesis and promotes cellular triglyceride storage
Cholesteryl ester transfer protein (CETP) exists as full-length (FL) and exon 9 (E9)-deleted isoforms. The function of E9-deleted CETP is poorly understood. Here, we investigated the role of E9-deleted CETP in regulating the secretion of FL-CETP by cells

Functional characterisation of the lipid raft protein stomatin [PDF]
The function of the integral membrane protein stomatin is as yet poorly understood. Stomatin is deficient from the erythrocyte membrane of patients suffering with Overhydrated Hereditary Stomatocytosis (OHSt).

Apolipoproteins (apo) C-I and C-II are key regulators of triglyceride and HDL metabolism. Both exist as full-size native and truncated (apoC-I'; apoC-II') posttranslational proteoforms. However, the determinants and the role of these proteoforms in lipid

Lipid bilayer composition influences small multidrug transporters [PDF]
Background: Membrane proteins are influenced by their surrounding lipids. We investigate the effect of bilayer composition on the membrane transport activity of two members of the small multidrug resistance family; the Escherichia coli transporter, EmrE
