An Assembly of Proteins and Lipid Domains Regulates Transport of Phosphatidylserine to Phosphatidylserine Decarboxylase 2 in \u3ci\u3eSaccharomyces cerevisiae\u3c/i\u3e [PDF]
Background: The machinery for interorganelle phosphatidylserine (PtdSer) transport is poorly defined at the molecular level. Results: Molecular interaction studies identify specific protein-protein and protein-lipid interactions in PtdSer transport ...

Structural insights into phosphatidylethanolamine formation in bacterial membrane biogenesis
Phosphatidylethanolamine (PE), a major component of the cellular membrane across all domains of life, is synthesized exclusively by membrane-anchored phosphatidylserine decarboxylase (PSD) in most bacteria.

Abstract INTRODUCTION Age‐related cognitive decline and Alzheimer's disease (AD) are strongly influenced by lipid metabolism, yet how central and peripheral lipid profiles relate to disease risk before symptom onset remains unclear. METHODS We performed comprehensive shotgun lipidomics in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) and plasma from cognitively unimpaired

Sesquiterpene lactones emerge as structurally diverse anticancer scaffolds with multifaceted mechanisms of action. Their biosynthesis, chemical diversity, structure–activity relationships, semisynthetic diversification, and molecular targets are integrated to highlight therapeutic opportunities and challenges.

Phosphatidylserine polarization is required for proper Cdc42 localization and for development of cell polarity. [PDF]
We used genetically-encoded fluorescent probes to visualize the distribution of phosphatidylserine (PS) in live S. cerevisiae. The majority of the PS was found to reside in the cytosolic leaflet of the plasma membrane.

Characterization of Sec14 Domain–Containing Proteins in the Malaria Parasite Plasmodium falciparum
During asexual blood‐stage development, P. falciparum Sec14 proteins display distinct localizations suggesting specialized roles in lipid exchange. PfSec14‐1 initially localizes to the nucleus before moving to the ER and Golgi alongside PfSec14‐4 during schizogony.

A Yeast Mutant Deleted of GPH1 Bears Defects in Lipid Metabolism.
In a previous study we demonstrated up-regulation of the yeast GPH1 gene under conditions of phosphatidylethanolamine (PE) depletion caused by deletion of the mitochondrial (M) phosphatidylserine decarboxylase 1 (PSD1) (Gsell et al., 2013, PLoS One. 8(10)

ABSTRACT Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is a fatal interstitial lung disease of unknown cause, marked by excessive deposition of extracellular matrix (ECM) components such as collagen. This pathological accumulation results in progressive destruction of the lung architecture and ultimately leads to respiratory failure.

Structural characterization of Escherichia coli phosphatidylserine decarboxylase.
Phosphatidylserine decarboxylase of Escherichia coli is one of a small group of pyruvoyl-dependent enzymes (Satre, M., and Kennedy, E.P. (1978) J. Biol. Chem. 253, 479-483). The DNA sequence of the structural gene (psd) and partial protein sequence studies demonstrate that the enzyme contains two nonidentical subunits, alpha (Mr = 7,332) and beta (Mr =

Multi‐omics insights into salinity tolerance in African bermudagrass
Abstract African bermudagrass (Cynodon transvaalensis Burtt‐Davy) is a key parent species used to produce interspecific hybrid bermudagrass (Cynodon dactylon × C. transvaalensis). Due to the increasing use of non‐potable water for landscape irrigation, salt stress has become a major concern in the turfgrass industry.
