Protein and lipid fingerprinting of native-like membrane complexes by combining TLC and protein electrophoresis[S]

open access: yesJournal 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 ...

Phosphoinositides as membrane organizers

open access: yesNature reviews. Molecular cell biology, 2022
Phosphoinositides are signalling lipids derived from phosphatidylinositol, a ubiquitous phospholipid in the cytoplasmic leaflet of eukaryotic membranes. Initially discovered for their roles in cell signalling, phosphoinositides are now widely recognized ...

Omega-3 versus Omega-6: Are We Underestimating the Ecological Significance of Arachidonic Acid in Aquatic Systems?

open access: yesBiomolecules, 2023
The long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA, ω-3, or n-3) and arachidonic acid (ARA, ω-6 or n-6) are known to have distinct physiological functions, yet can both support growth and reproduction of consumers, raising the ...

Roles of polyunsaturated fatty acids, from mediators to membranes

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 2020
PUFAs, such as AA and DHA, are recognized as important biomolecules, but understanding their precise roles and modes of action remains challenging. PUFAs are precursors for a plethora of signaling lipids, for which knowledge about synthetic pathways and ...

The autophagic membrane tether ATG2A transfers lipids between membranes

open access: yesbioRxiv, 2019
An enigmatic step in de novo formation of the autophagosome membrane compartment is the expansion of the precursor membrane phagophore, which requires the acquisition of lipids to serve as building blocks.

Membrane homeoviscous adaptation in the piezo-hyperthermophilic archaeon Thermococcus barophilus

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2015
The archaeon Thermococcus barophilus, one of the most extreme members of hyperthermophilic piezophiles known thus far, is able to grow at temperatures up to 103°C and pressures up to 80MPa. We analyzed the membrane lipids of T. barophilus by HPLC-MS as a

Manipulation of Senescence of Plants to Improve Biotic Stress Resistance

open access: yesLife, 2022
The physiological state, i.e., senescence or juvenility, of plants and plant organs can have strong effect on their reactions to pathogen attacks. This effect is mainly expressed as changes in the severity of disease symptoms.

A novel flow cytometric assay to quantify interactions between proteins and membrane lipids

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 2009
A diverse set of experimental systems has been developed to probe protein-lipid interactions. These include measurements with the headgroups of membrane lipids in solution, immobilized membrane lipids, and analysis of protein binding to membrane lipids ...

Lipid entrapment property of polysaccharide gel (PG) extracted from fruit-hulls of durian (Durio zibethinus Murr. Cv. Mon-Thong) [PDF]

open access: yesSongklanakarin Journal of Science and Technology (SJST), 2005
Lipid entrapment property of polysaccharide gel (PG) extracted from fruit-hulls of durian (Durio zibethinus Murr. Cv. Mon-Thong) was investigated in vitro by semi- permeable membrane dialysis technique using both cellulose membrane and gut sacs of ...

Formation of raft-like assemblies within clusters of influenza hemagglutinin observed by MD simulations.

open access: yesPLoS Computational Biology, 2013
The association of hemagglutinin (HA) with lipid rafts in the plasma membrane is an important feature of the assembly process of influenza virus A. Lipid rafts are thought to be small, fluctuating patches of membrane enriched in saturated phospholipids ...
