Phospholipid synthesis inside phospholipid membrane vesicles
AbstractConstruction of living artificial cells from genes and molecules can expand our understanding of life system and establish a new aspect of bioengineering. However, growth and division of cell membrane that are basis of cell proliferation are still difficult to reconstruct because a high-yielding phospholipid synthesis system has not been ...

A minimal biochemical route towards de novo formation of synthetic phospholipid membranes. [PDF]
All living cells consist of membrane compartments, which are mainly composed of phospholipids. Phospholipid synthesis is catalyzed by membrane-bound enzymes, which themselves require pre-existing membranes for function.

Chemistry of phospholipid oxidation
The oxidation of lipids has long been a topic of interest in biological and food sciences, and the fundamental principles of non-enzymatic free radical attack on phospholipids are well established, although questions about detail of the mechanisms remain.

Phospholipids of the Thiobacilli [PDF]
Phosphatidyl glycerol, disphosphatidyl glycerol, and phosphatidyl ethanolamine were found in all of the Thiobacillus species studied. T. thioparus possessed only these phospholipids. T. intermedius, T. neapolitanus , and T. thiooxidans contained

All lipid transport proteins in eukaryotes are thought to shuttle lipids between cellular membranes. In this issue, Li et al. (2020. J. Cell Biol.https://doi.org/10.1083/jcb.202001161) show that Vps13 has a channel-like domain that may allow lipids to flow between closely apposed membranes at contact sites.

Lipid peroxidation (LPO) drives ferroptosis execution. However, LPO has been shown to contribute also to other modes of regulated cell death (RCD).

Publisher Summary Phospholipids are an important class of biomolecules, which have use as probes for membrane structure and function and for lipid–protein interactions. The chapter also explains enzyme mechanisms and preparation of liposomes and vesicles. Therapeutical applications of these compounds include the use of these compounds as drug-carriers,

This is a comprehensive review on the use of phospholipid nanovesicles for dermal/transdermal and nasal drug administration. Phospholipid-based vesicular carriers have been widely investigated for enhanced drug delivery via dermal/transdermal routes ...

The brucellae are facultative intracellular bacteria with a cell envelope rich in phosphatidylcholine (PC). PC is abundant in eukaryotes but rare in prokaryotes, and it has been proposed that Brucella uses PC to mimic eukaryotic-like features and avoid ...

In vivo stability of ester- and ether-linked phospholipid-containing liposomes as measured by perturbed angular correlation spectroscopy [PDF]
To evaluate liposome formulations for use as intracellular sustained-release drug depots, we have compared the uptake and degradation in rat liver and spleen of liposomes of various compositions, containing as their bulk phospholipid an ether-linked ...
