A new discovery about how cells communicate with each other in the body's immune system has revealed deeper insights for an ...

To be effective, lipids must be transported from where they are produced to where they are needed. Unlike proteins, they do not like water and therefore cannot move freely in the aqueous environment ...

A by-product of rice bran oil production has long been recognized as a source of beneficial lipids for skin health and ...

Researchers at the University of Geneva mapped how hundreds of lipids are transported inside cells, revealing that each lipid ...

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 ...

New understandings of how lipids function within tears could lead to better drugs for treating dry eye disease. A new approach has given Hokkaido University researchers insight into the synthesis and ...

New understandings of how lipids function within tears could lead to better drugs for treating dry eye disease. New understandings of how lipids function within tears could lead to better drugs for ...

So far, it has been difficult to analyze the functions of lipid molecules in living cells. Researchers have now developed chemical tools that can be activated by light and used to influence lipid ...

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 ...
