The roles of chloroplast membrane lipids in abiotic stress responses
Plant Signalling & Behavior, 2020 Plant chloroplasts have complex membrane systems. Among these, thylakoids serve as the sites for photosynthesis and photosynthesis-related adaptation. In addition to the photosynthetic membrane complexes and associated molecules, lipids in the thylakoid ...

The Crucial Roles of Phospholipids in Aging and Lifespan Regulation
Frontiers in Physiology, 2021 Phospholipids are major membrane lipids that consist of lipid bilayers. This basic cellular structure acts as a barrier to protect the cell against various environmental insults and more importantly, enables multiple cellular processes to occur in ...

How membrane lipids control the 3D structure and function of receptors
AIMS Biophysics, 2018 The cohabitation of lipids and proteins in the plasma membrane of mammalian cells is controlled by specific biochemical and biophysical rules. Lipids may be either constitutively tightly bound to cell-surface receptors (non-annular lipids) or less ...

Lipids and membrane lateral organization
Frontiers in Physiology, 2010 Shortly after the elucidation of the very basic structure and properties of cellular membranes, it became evident that cellular membranes are highly organized structures with multiple and multi-dimensional levels of order.

FEBS Letters, 1974 Today, as in 1964, those who are concerned with membranes are broadly divided into two main groups: investigators who work on lipids and others who study proteins. Whether one pursues mainly this aspect or that is often more the result of individual interest and background rather than the outcome of a decision that one particular aspect of membranes is

Heat Stress Dictates Microbial Lipid Composition along a Thermal Gradient in Marine Sediments
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2017 Temperature exerts a first-order control on microbial populations, which constantly adjust the fluidity and permeability of their cell membrane lipids to minimize loss of energy by ion diffusion across the membrane.

Membranes, 2021 Membrane proteins reside in the lipid bilayer of biomembranes and the structure and function of these proteins are closely related to their interactions with lipid molecules.

Journal of Lipid Research, 1987 This review is the first on the composition and metabolism of Paramecium lipids. This ciliated protozoa is a useful system for studying the structure and function of biomembranes since it can be grown under chemically defined culture conditions in large ...

Journal of Lipid Research, 2019 TLC has traditionally been used to analyze lipids isolated from membrane complexes. Here, we describe a method based on the combination of TLC and SDS-PAGE to qualitatively analyze the protein/lipid profile of membrane complexes such as those of lung ...

Head-Group Acylation of Chloroplast Membrane Lipids
Molecules, 2021 Head group-acylated chloroplast lipids were discovered in the 1960s, but interest was renewed about 15 years ago with the discovery of Arabidopsides E and G, acylated monogalactosyldiacylglycerols with oxidized fatty acyl chains originally identified in ...
