Changes in lipid composition during sexual development of the malaria parasite Plasmodium falciparum
, 2018 Background The development of differentiated sexual stages (gametocytes) within human red blood cells is essential for the propagation of the malaria parasite, since only mature gametocytes will survive in the mosquito’s midgut.

Fusion of neurohypophyseal membranes in vitro [PDF]
, 1977 Freeze cleaving electron microscopy has shown that fusion of isolated secretory vesicles from bovine neurohypophyses was induced by Ca 2+ in micromolar concentrations. Mg 2+ and Sr 2+ were ineffective. Mg 2+ inhibited Ca 2+-induced fusion. In suspensions

Predicting the Proteins of Angomonas deanei, Strigomonas culicis and Their Respective Endosymbionts Reveals New Aspects of the Trypanosomatidae Family [PDF]
, 2013 Endosymbiont-bearing trypanosomatids have been considered excellent models for the study of cell evolution because the host protozoan co-evolves with an intracellular bacterium in a mutualistic relationship.

Biocatalytic modification of food lipids: reactions and applications [PDF]
, 2014 The acylglycerol structure exemplifies the major lipid building block and therefore is an interesting structure to modify. Such modification is driven by: (1) consumers who have become more concerned about the relationship between diet and wellness, and (
