Biosynthesis of archaeal membrane ether lipids
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2014 A vital function of the cell membrane in all living organism is to maintain the membrane permeability barrier and fluidity. The composition of the phospholipid bilayer is distinct in archaea when compared to bacteria and eukarya.

Emerging roles of ATG proteins and membrane lipids in autophagosome formation
Cell Discovery, 2020 Autophagosome biogenesis is a dynamic membrane event, which is executed by the sequential function of autophagy-related (ATG) proteins. Upon autophagy induction, a cup-shaped membrane structure appears in the cytoplasm, then elongates sequestering ...

Membrane Lipids’ Metabolism and Transcriptional Regulation in Maize Roots Under Cold Stress
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2021 Low temperature is one of the major abiotic stresses that restrict the growth and development of maize seedlings. Membrane lipid metabolism and remodeling are key strategies for plants to cope with temperature stresses.

The Effects of Regulatory Lipids on Intracellular Membrane Fusion Mediated by Dynamin-Like GTPases
Frontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2020 Membrane fusion mediates a number of fundamental biological processes such as intracellular membrane trafficking, fertilization, and viral infection. Biological membranes are composed of lipids and proteins; while lipids generally play a structural role,

Plasma Membrane Fluidity: An Environment Thermal Detector in Plants
Cells, 2021 The lipid matrix in cell membranes is a dynamic, bidimensional array of amphipathic molecules exhibiting mesomorphism, which contributes to the membrane fluidity changes in response to temperature fluctuation.

Membrane curvature sorts lipids [PDF]
EMBO reports, 2005 The enrichment of sphingolipids and cholesterol in the mammalian plasma membrane, and unsaturated phosphatidylcholine (PC) in the endoplasmic reticulum, requires lipid sorting in the Golgi apparatus. Most sphingolipids are synthesized in the Golgi lumen (Holthuis & Levine, 2005).

Drought and heat stress mediated activation of lipid signaling in plants: a critical review
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2023 Lipids are a principal component of plasma membrane, acting as a protective barrier between the cell and its surroundings. Abiotic stresses such as drought and temperature induce various lipid-dependent signaling responses, and the membrane lipids ...
