Plastid membranes (thylakoids as well as the two envelope membranes) contain specific polar lipids (galactolipids, sulfolipid, phospholipids), pigments (chlorophylls, carotenoids) and prenylquinones (plastoquinone, tocopherols). In this chapter, we describe our present understanding of the structure of...
Among the most common of membrane lipids in biological membranes are the phospholipids. The biosynthetic pathways for these phospholipids are well understood. For the most part, separate pathways are used for each class of phospholipids. However some integration occurs, for example, between the biosynt...
Composition and characterization of the lipids of garfish (Lepisosteus osseus) olfactory nerve, a tissue rich in axonal membrane The garfish olfactory and trigeminal nerves were studied for their lipid composition. Cholesterol was the only neutral lipid found in both nerves. The phos... GK Chack...

Bacterial cells exert exquisite control over the biosynthesis of their membrane lipids, but the mechanisms are obscure. We describe the identification and purification from Bacillus subtilis of a transcription factor, FapR, that controls the expression of many genes involved in fatty acid and ...
Lipids of ocular tissues. IV. A comparison of the phospholipids from the retina of six mammalian species. Each species has nearly identical composition; the major phospholipid classes are phosphatidyl choline and phosphatidyl ethanolamine. The same lipid class from ... RE Anderson - 《Experimental ...
Saponins form complexes with cholesterol, thus causing loss of membrane integrity and cell death. However, sea cucumbers have evolved the ability to produce high levels of lathosterol and11sterols rather than cholesterol, which may enable them to be resistant to their own saponins (Extended Data Fig...

The addition of functional groups, such as formation of a disulfide bond, acetyl residue, phosphate residue, lipids and sugar moiety, also occurs post-translationally, resulting in the active conformation of certain proteins. Moreover, the hydrophobic polypeptide chain (signal peptide), which is ...
