Sterols are among the most abundant lipids in eukaryotic cells, yet are synthesized through notoriously long, complex metabolic pathways. Researchers have used a novel approach to show how they ...

Sterols, such as cholesterol in our bodies or ergosterol in yeast cells, are among the most abundant lipids in eukaryotic ...

Article Views are the COUNTER-compliant sum of full text article downloads since November 2008 (both PDF and HTML) across all institutions and individuals. These metrics are regularly updated to ...

Cells must constantly manage the structure and makeup of their membranes, which rely heavily on lipids produced in the ... arrangement in natural membrane bilayers. Mass spectrometry identified ...

The results from this study, which investigates the mechanisms necessary for initiating tissue invagination using a cellular Potts modelling approach, suggests that apical constriction is not ...

PS nanoplastics do not disaggregate after penetrating the lipid membrane, which affects the molecular structure of the bilayer. In addition, our MD simulations demonstrated that small-molecule ...

In this study we incorporated different types of aortic root motion into fluid-structure interaction (FSI) models representing an ATAA and a healthy aorta to examine their impacts on wall stress and ...
