Lipids are fatty compounds that perform a range of essential functions in the body. Phospholipids, steroids, and triglycerides are examples of lipids. Although lipids play an essential role in the ...

A new study shows that lipid droplets in the leaves contain plant proteins such as different myosin binding proteins involved in intracellular movement, and several enzymes responsible for ...

A schematic illustration of the role of DHHC5 and CRYBG1 in controlling lacteal function and intestinal lipid absorption by maintaining the lipid raft association of VEGFR2. The proper functioning of ...

Lipid-binding sites and properties were compared in the hetero-oligomeric cytochrome (cyt) b₆f and the yeast bc₁ complexes that function, respectively, in photosynthetic and respiratory electron ...

Surviving longer and remaining healthier in later life is influenced by many factors beyond classical blood lipids. A growing ...

Serum amyloid A (SAA) is a family of ancient proteins that can be traced from present-day humans back half a billion years to sea cucumbers and oysters. A new study by researchers from the Boston ...

Table 1 reports the demographic, anthropometric, and metabolic characteristics of the 588 participants (347 males [59%] and 241 females) stratified by the degree of ultrasonographic liver steatosis.

We're excited to announce an open post-doctoral position in Robert Vacha's Research Group! Eukaryotic and prokaryotic plasma membranes exhibit inherent asymmetry, with distinct lipid compositions ...

We evaluated whether LAP, developed as an index of cardiometabolic risk in a representative sample of the US population, [15] could be employed as a predictor of liver steatosis in the same Northern ...
