Phosphatidylethanolamine deficiency disrupts alpha-synuclein homeostasis in yeast and worm models of Parkinson disease

, 2014
Phosphatidylserine decarboxylase, which is embedded in the inner mitochondrial membrane, synthesizes phosphatidylethanolamine (PE) and, in some cells, synthesizes the majority of this important phospholipid.

The mitochondrial phosphatidylserine decarboxylase Psd1 is involved in nitrogen starvation-induced mitophagy in yeast

, 2019
International audienceMitophagy, the selective degradation of mitochondria by autophagy, is a central process that is essential for the maintenance of cell homeostasis. It is implicated in the clearance of superfluous or damaged mitochondria and requires

Biochemistry and Diseases Related to the Interconversion of Phosphatidylcholine, Phosphatidylethanolamine, and Phosphatidylserine

Phospholipids are crucial structural components of cells. Phosphatidylcholine and phosphatidylethanolamine (both synthesized via the Kennedy pathway) and phosphatidylserine undergo interconversion.

Targeting mitochondrial phosphatidylethanolamine alters mitochondrial metabolism and proliferation in hepatocellular carcinoma

Oncogenesis
Mitochondrial metabolism is crucial for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) to thrive. Although phospholipids modulate mitochondrial metabolism, their impact on metabolism in HCC remains unknown.

Role of Phosphatidylserine Receptors in Enveloped Virus Infection [PDF]

, 2014
We recently demonstrated that a soluble protein, Gas6, can facilitate viral entry by bridging viral envelope phosphatidylserine to Axl, a receptor tyrosine kinase expressed on target cells.

Defining the molecular requirements for phosphatidylserine decarboxylase activation (757.3)

The FASEB Journal, 2014
Phosphatidylethanolamine (PE) is a major membrane phospholipid that is critical for a multitude of biological processes and essential for life. One pathway of PE production occurs in the mitochondrion. Psd1p, the responsible enzyme, decarboxylates phosphatidylserine (PS) to PE.
