Disease-related PSS1 mutant impedes the formation and function of osteoclasts
Phosphatidylserine (PS) is an acidic phospholipid that is involved in various cellular events. Heterologous dominant mutations have been identified in the gene encoding PS synthase 1 (PSS1) in patients with a congenital disease called Lenz-Majewski ...

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 ...

Protocol to purify and detect ubiquitinated phospholipids in budding yeast and human cell lines
Summary: Ubiquitin is covalently conjugated to phospholipids as well as proteins; however, ubiquitinated phospholipids are less abundant than free ubiquitin and ubiquitinated proteins.
