Naturally Derived Membrane Lipids Impact Nanoparticle-Based Messenger RNA Delivery

open access: yesCellular and Molecular Bioengineering, 2020
Introduction Lipid based nanoparticles (LNPs) are clinically successful vectors for hepatic delivery of nucleic acids. These systems are being developed for non-hepatic delivery of mRNA for the treatment of diseases like cystic fibrosis or retinal ...

The roles of chloroplast membrane lipids in abiotic stress responses

open access: yesPlant 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

open access: yesFrontiers 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

open access: yesAIMS 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 membranes [PDF]

open access: yesFEBS 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

open access: yesFrontiers 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.

Heavy Atom Detergent/Lipid Combined X-ray Crystallography for Elucidating the Structure-Function Relationships of Membrane Proteins

open access: yesMembranes, 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.

Spiroplasma membrane lipids [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Bacteriology, 1985
Membranes of six spiroplasma strains belonging to different Spiroplasma species and subgroups were isolated by a combination of osmotic lysis and sonication in the presence of EDTA to block endogenous phospholipase activity. Analysis of membrane lipids showed that in addition to free and esterified cholesterol the spiroplasmas incorporated exogenous ...

Lipids of Paramecium

open access: yesJournal 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 ...
