Phospholipid Signaling in Crop Plants: A Field to Explore

Plants
In plant models such as Arabidopsis thaliana, phosphatidic acid (PA), a key molecule of lipid signaling, was shown not only to be involved in stress responses, but also in plant development and nutrition.

Rapid Phosphatidic Acid Accumulation in Response to Low Temperature Stress in Arabidopsis is Generated through Diacylglycerol Kinase

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2013
Phosphatidic acid (PtdOH) is emerging as an important signalling lipid in abiotic stress responses in plants. The effect of cold stress was monitored using 32P-labelled seedlings and leaf discs of Arabidopsis thaliana.

Soybean Oil Degumming by Immobilized Phospholipase A1 [PDF]

Iranian Journal of Chemistry & Chemical Engineering, 2018
In the present study, we investigated the ability of an immobilized phospholipase A1 (PLA1) in degumming of soybean oil. The enzyme was immobilized by simple adsorption on bentonite without any further modification.

Pleural Lubrication

Lubricants, 2016
During breathing, the pleural surfaces slide against each other continuously without damage. Pleural liquid and lubricating molecules should provide the lubrication of the sliding surfaces, thus protecting the mesothelium from shear-induced abrasion.

Biofilm, proteinase and phospholipase production by Candida albicans isolates from a hospital in Thailand [PDF]

Songklanakarin Journal of Science and Technology (SJST), 2023
This study aimed to determine biofilm formation, and production of phospholipase and proteinase in 73 clinical isolates of Candida albicans. Biofilms formed in a 96-well plate were quantified by crystal violet staining.

The pathobiology of Neisseria gonorrhoeae lower female genital tract infection

Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2011
Infection and disease associated with Neisseria gonorrhoeae, the gonococcus, continue to be a global health problem. Asymptomatic and subclinical gonococcal infections occur at a high frequency in females; thus, the true incidence of N.

The Escherichia coli Phospholipase PldA Regulates Outer Membrane Homeostasis via Lipid Signaling

mBio, 2018
The outer membrane (OM) bilayer of Gram-negative bacteria is biologically unique in its asymmetrical organization of lipids, with an inner leaflet composed of glycerophospholipids (PLs) and a surface-exposed outer leaflet composed of lipopolysaccharide ...
