Lecture

Genetic Control of Proteins and Lipids

Description

This lecture covers the genetic control of proteins and lipids, focusing on the role of genes in protein biosynthesis, cholesterol production, and mucovisidosis. It also discusses the electrostatic interactions involved in the formation of lipid bilayers and the repair mechanisms of cell membranes. The lecture delves into the structural properties of phosphoglycerides, the influence of lipid shape on cellular compartments, and the organization of membranes induced by SARS-CoV. Additionally, it explores phosphoinositides, sphingolipids, and glycosphingolipids, emphasizing their biological significance and heterogeneity. The class concludes with an overview of steroles and the complex lipid mixtures found in cell membranes.
