Partitioning of fatty acids between membrane and storage lipids controls ER membrane expansion | The EMBO Journal imageimagePDAT enzymes use membrane phospholipids as direct fatty acid donors to generate triglycerides stored in lipid droplets. This study identifies an inhibitory segment within the budding yeast P...

Congratulations to Symeon Siniossoglou, Pawel Lysyganicz and co-authors for the most recent paper about the yeast phospholipid diacylglycerol acyltransferase Lro1. Thank you for including me in this work.

The paper can be found here: www.embopress.org/doi/full/10....

New grant approved! Hooray! Looking for a #PhDstudent with strong interest in membrane protein reconstitution, physicochemical membrane properties and FRET-based assays. 👉 Which membrane properties drive protein partitioning to #LipidDroplets?

Please share!
