Ester An ester is a chemical compound derived from an acid (organic or inorganic) in which at least one –OH hydroxyl group is replaced by an –O– alkyl (alkoxy) group, as in the substitution reaction of a carboxylic acid and an alcohol. Glycerides are fatty acid esters of glycerol; th...

These interactions are strongly dependent on whether the lipids contain ether or ester linkages. Nc is in random coil state in solution but undergoes a large increase in α-helicity in ether vesicles, and to a much smaller extent in ester vesicles, around the t p . This structure is lost ...
novel cationic lipids based on 4-(aminomethyl)-1,2-bis-(fatty ether or ester)-benzenedoi:US20100063308 A1The present invention relates to novel cationic lipids, transfection agents, microparticles, nanoparticles, and short interfering nucleic acid (siNA) molecules. The invention also features ...
Integrated lipidomics and isotope analyses of the TgECT mutant unveiled the endogenous synthesis of ester-PtdEtn, and salvage of ether-linked lipids from host cells. In brief, this study demonstrates how T. gondii operates various means to produce distinct forms of PtdEtn while featuring the ...
Dissimilarities in the bulk structure of bilayers composed of ether- vs ester-linked lipids are well-established; however, the atomistic interactions responsible for these differences are not well known. These differences are important in understanding of why archaea have a different bilayer composition ...
