Frontiers in Microbiology, 2021 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 ...

FEBS Letters, 1988 Protein mediated phospholipid translocation through membranes has been observed in rat liver endoplasmic reticulum and in the plasma membrane of erythrocytes as well as in a few other cell membranes. Lipid translocation in plasma membranes is ATP dependent and selectively accumulates aminophospholipids on the inner monolayers.

Phospholipid Scramblases [PDF]
Lipid Insights, 2015 The distribution of phospholipid types between the two leaflets of a membrane bilayer is a controlled feature of membrane structure. One of the two membrane catalytic activities governing this distribution randomizes the composition of the two leaflets–-the phospholipid scramblases.

Frontiers in Physiology, 2013 Not all of the mysteries of life lie in our genetic code. Some can be found buried in our membranes. These shells of fat, sculpted in the central nervous system into the cellular (and subcellular) boundaries of neurons and glia, are themselves complex ...

The effect of desiccation on viability and membrane lipid composition of Acer pseudoplatanus seeds
Acta Societatis Botanicorum Poloniae, 2014 The viability of desiccation-intolerant sycamore (Acer pseudoplatanus L.) seeds during desiccation was investigated by tetrazolium and by a germinability test, together with membrane permeability and membrane phospholipid composition.

Phospholipids as ionophores. [PDF]
Journal of Biological Chemistry, 1976 The ionophoretic capabilities of phospholipids have been examined by direct measurement in a Pressman cell of the phospholipid-mediated translocation of cations across an organic phase separating two aqueous phases. Cardiolipin and phosphatidic acid were the most active inonophores among the phospholipids tested, with activities comparable to that of ...

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Interaction extracellular vesicles (iEVs) are hybrid vesicles formed through host‐pathogen communication. They facilitate immune evasion, transfer pathogens' molecules, increase host cell uptake, and enhance virulence. This Perspective article illustrates the multifunctional roles of iEVs and highlights their emerging relevance in infection dynamics ...

Oil body extraction from oleo-proteaginous seeds and conservation of valuable native compounds☆
Oilseeds and fats, crops and lipids, 2023 Oil bodies, also called oleosomes have been the object of an increased interest since the last decade. Different processes of extraction and purification involve an aqueous crushing with methods to soften the cell membranes.
