Photosynthetic membranes of plants primarily contain non-phosphorous glycolipids. The exception is phosphatidylglycerol (PG), which is an acidic/anionic phospholipid. A second major anionic lipid in chloroplasts
Lipophagy does not necessarily directly convert to ATP for cellular energy supply. As the embryo develops, there is a decrease in lipids such as phospholipids and TAGs in the egg, while the opposite trend is observed in the glycogen near-infrared spectrum, suggesting that lipid consumption accompan...
Sialic acids are predominantly found at the terminal ends of glycoproteins and glycolipids and play key roles in cellular communication and function. The process of sialylation, a form of post-translational modification, involves the covalent attachment of sialic acid to the terminal residues of oligosa...
This is analogous to oncogenic KRAS enhancing UDP-glucose production for the synthesis of specific glycolipids, which in turn promote KRAS PM targeting and signaling. This positive feed forward loop between activated KRAS signaling and enhanced glycosphingolipid metabolism extends the known functions of...
Studies have shown that PI3K/AKT signaling pathway influences the expression of SREBP1C/FASN, regulating the conversion of glycolipids in cells in response to sugar concentration [79]. This process may involve the biogenic effects of gly- cogen on LDs, leading to increased FASN levels and pro-...

By weight, myelin is ∼80% lipid (mainly glycolipids) with the remainder being specific myelin proteins such as myelin basic protein and proteolipid protein. This unique biochemical composition has permitted both PNS and CNS myelin to be purified by biochemical fractionation procedures, which in tur...

This biological feature is, at least in part, attributable to an anti-inflammatory and anti-thrombogenic surface on the endothelium, the glycocalyx.93 The glycocalyx is a uniform, semipermeable layer (on average ∼50 to 100 nm thick) composed of proteins, glycoproteins, glycolipids, and ...
