Abstract Phospholipids in biological membranes establish a chemical equilibrium between free phospholipids in the aqueous phase (CMC) and self‐assembled phospholipids in vesicles, keeping the CMC constant. The CMC is different for each phospholipid, depends on the amount of cholesterol, and, according to the lipid‐chaperone hypothesis, controls the ...

Molecular Basis for Vacuolar Iron Transport by OsVIT2, a Target for Iron Biofortification in Rice
ABSTRACT Iron deficiency is the prevalent and most widespread nutritional shortfall for humans, affecting over 30% of the global population and leading to anemia, particularly among preschool‐aged children and pregnant women in developing countries. Simultaneously, while half of the world's population depends on rice (Oryza sativa L.) as a staple food,

ABSTRACT Rationale In this study, we applied cross‐linking mass spectrometry (XL‐MS) to characterize the oligomeric states of a PGLa/magainin 2 mixture and gain insight into the heterodimerization previously suggested in the literature. Both peptides have shown a synergistic enhancement of activity when tested in antimicrobial assays; however, the ...
