Mg2+-driven selection of natural phosphatidic acids in primitive membranes. [PDF]
Chem SciBiological membranes are composed exclusively of phospholipids comprising glycerol-1-phosphate or glycerol-3-phosphate. By contrast, primitive membranes would have likely been composed of heterogeneous mixtures of phospholipids, including non-natural ...

Arabidopsis thaliana Fibrillin 3a binds saturated fatty acids of chloroplast membranes [PDF]
Plant Signaling & BehaviorFibrillins (FBNs) are conserved plastid lipid–associated proteins involved in lipid storage, stress adaptation and plastid ultrastructure. While several Arabidopsis thaliana FBNs have been functionally characterized, the biochemical properties of the ...

Formation of phosphatidic acid in stressed mitochondria
Archives of Biochemistry and Biophysics, 2008 Mitochondria are an important intracellular source of ROS as well as a sensitive target for oxidative damage under certain pathological conditions such as iron or copper overload. Mitochondrial membranes are rich in the tetraacyl phospholipid cardiolipin. Its integrity is important for efficient oxidative phosphorylation.

The Role of Osmolytes and Membrane Lipids in the Adaptation of Acidophilic Fungi
Microorganisms, 2023 Acidophiles maintain near-neutral intracellular pH using proton pumps. We have suggested the protective role of osmolytes and membrane lipids in the adaptation to an acidic environment.

Phosphatidic acid and neurotransmission [PDF]
Advances in Biological Regulation, 2017 Lipids play a vital role in the health and functioning of neurons and interest in the physiological role of neuronal lipids is certainly increasing. One neuronal function in which neuronal lipids appears to play key roles in neurotransmission. Our understanding of the role of lipids in the synaptic vesicle cycle and neurotransmitter release is becoming
