MetabolomicsFatty acid oxidation protects cancer cells from apoptosis through increasing mitochondrial membrane lipids

Overcoming resistance to chemotherapies remains a major unmet need for cancers such as triple negative breast cancer (TNBC). Therefore, mechanistic studies to provide insight for drug development are urgently needed to overcome TNBC therapy resistance. Recently, an important role of fatty acid β-...

MetabolomicsNGT induced mitochondrial dysfunction, led to apoptosis, and changed metabolites associated with oxidized lipids in sperm of Pacific oyster (Crassostrea gigas).

The risk of norgestrel (NGT) exposure in the aquatic environment has been identified, but the toxic effects on invertebrate germ cells are unknown. Therefore, the toxic effects of NGT on oyster sperm were investigated by combining transcriptome and metabolome analysis with histology. Transcriptom...

MetabolomicsMolecular structural diversity of mitochondrial cardiolipins
Current strategies used to quantitatively describe the biological diversity of lipids by mass spectrometry are often limited in assessing the exact structural variability of individual molecular species in detail. A major challenge is represented by the extensive isobaric overlap present among lipid...

MetabolomicsEnterococcus faecalis readily adapts membrane phospholipid composition to environmental and genetic perturbation

The bacterial lipid membrane, consisting both of fatty acid (acyl) tails and polar head groups, responds to changing conditions through alteration of either the acyl tails and/or head groups. This plasticity is critical for cell survival as it allows maintenance of both the protective nature of t...

MetabolomicsThe patatin-like protein PlpD forms novel structurally dynamic homodimers in the Pseudomonas aeruginosa outer membrane

Members of the Omp85 superfamily of outer membrane proteins (OMPs) found in Gram-negative bacteria, mitochondria and chloroplasts are characterized by a distinctive 16-stranded β-barrel transmembrane domain and at least one periplasmic POTRA domain. All previously studied Omp85 proteins promote c...

MetabolomicsMembrane lipid as cofactor of cargo uptake and release by box-like lipid transfer proteins
Lipid transfer proteins (LTPs) shuttle their cargo lipids between cellular membranes. LTPs facilitate the costly extraction of a lipid from a donor membrane, and its delivery into the acceptor membrane, but the mechanisms remain poorly understood. We combined extensive molecular dynamics simulations...

ProteomicsCFAP418 participates in membrane-associated cellular processes through binding lipids during ciliogenesis
iliopathies and retinal degenerative diseases are heterogeneous groups of genetic diseases. CFAP418 is a causative gene of both diseases, and its sequence is evolutionarily conserved. Here, we employ affinity purification coupled with mass spectrometry and quantitative lipidomic, proteomic, and phos...

ProteomicsPhosphoproteomics of the developing heart identifies PERM1 - an outer mitochondrial membrane protein
Heart development relies on PTMs that control cardiomyocyte proliferation, differentiation and cardiac morphogenesis. We generated a map of phosphorylation sites during the early stages of cardiac postnatal development in mice; we quantified over 10,000 phosphorylation sites and 5000 proteins that w...

MetabolomicsLipids in the escalated host-pathogen arms race

Lipids, fundamental constituents of cell membranes, cellular energy carriers, and signaling molecules, play a pivotal role in the interaction between pathogens and hosts. During microbial infections, lipids not only fuel the activation of the immune system but also, acting as signaling molec...

MetabolomicsPhospholipid acyl chain diversity controls the tissue-specific assembly of mitochondrial cardiolipins

Cardiolipin (CL) is a phospholipid specific for mitochondrial membranes and crucial for many core tasks of this organelle. Its side chain configurations are tissue-specific, functionally important and generated via post-biosynthetic remodeling. However, this process lacks the necessary specificit...
