(C) The subregions of a glycerophospholipid molecule; phosphatidylcholine is shown as an example. The hydrophilic head is composed of a choline structure (blue) and a phosphate (orange).

For many lipids such as phospholipids, glycerolipids and sphingolipids, thousands of different molecular species were found to be present in tissues and cells. Having the ability to qualitatively ...

such as the discovery of new classes or types of lipids that differ only at the molecular level, for example. During the founding phase of the Center, which will stretch over five years, a Research ...

A crucial molecule for brain health acts as a garbage collector of other fat molecules (lipids), despite also being a lipid itself. So for more than half a century, researchers have puzzled over ...

BMP happens to be an oddly left-handed molecule among right-handed fats. "Everything in lipid biochemistry starts from one ...
