Primary cilia are key sensory organelles whose dysfunction leads to ciliopathy disorders such as Bardet-Biedl syndrome (BBS). Retinal degeneration is common in ciliopathies, since the outer segments (OSs) of photoreceptors are highly specialized primary cilia. BBS...
SARS-CoV-2 reprograms host metabolism to promote viral replication and evade immune responses. While infection is known to impair mitochondrial function and enhance glycolysis, the role of viral accessory proteins in these alterations remains unclear. Here, we investigate the metabolic impact of ...
Lipid transfer proteins (LTPs) maintain the specialised lipid compositions of biological membranes, and many are associated with disease. In eukaryotes, they support organellar functions by transporting lipids between compartmentalised metabolic pathways. However, for the majority of the hundreds...
