Crenarchaeol is a large, closed-loop lipid that is present in the membranes of ammonium-oxidizing archaea. In comparison to other archaeal membrane lipids, crenarchaeol is very complex and, so far, ...

AI has designed candidate drugs for antibiotic-resistant infections and genetic diseases. But efforts to incorporate AI into ...

Researchers report the structure of a key long-chain lipid in the tear film lipid layer, which prevents tears from drying out. Their finding may be used to improve treatments for dry eye. As anyone ...

Oregon Health & Science University, in collaboration with Oregon State University, has discovered the structural organization and protein components of a lipid-transfer complex known as LPD-3.

This project explores how a specific group of lipids, key membrane components and dynamic signaling molecules, shape cellular fate by regulating both senescence and cell death. Project is Not ...

Scientists have discovered that the internal shape of tiny drug-delivery particles—called lipid nanoparticles—has a big impact on how well our cells absorb them, paving the way to more efficient ...

Nanomedicine. 2014;9(1):105-120. SNALP & its Application. SNALP is constructed by three basic lipids: an ionizable cationic lipid (1,2-dilinoleyloxy-3-dimethylaminopropane), a neutral helper lipid, ...
