The ability of bacteria to control the biophysical properties of their membrane phospholipids allows them to thrive in a wide range of physical environments. Fatty acid biosynthesis is an energy ...

In view of the oxygen-rich environment in the eye, it is particularly noteworthy that phospholipids containing docosahexaenoic acid (DHA), which are exquisitely sensitive to oxidative damage (1), are ...

The membrane is composed of lipids, proteins, and carbohydrates. The lipid bilayer contains a mixture of different lipid classes, including neutral lipids, phospholipids, and glycosphingolipids.

through its interaction and ability to form specific domains with membrane phospholipids. The study is a step forward for boosting research on mediators and molecular mechanisms that could promote new ...
