Exosomes, microvesicles, and other extracellular vesicles-a Keystone Symposia report

Michele De Palma, Ferdinando Pucci, Qin Zhang

Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are small, lipid-bilayer-bound particles released by cells that can contain important bioactive molecules, including lipids, RNAs, and proteins. Once released in the extracellular environment, EVs can act as messengers locally ...

WILEY2023

Golgi maturation-dependent glycoenzyme recycling controls glycosphingolipid biosynthesis and cell growth via GOLPH3

Giovanni D'Angelo, Laura Capolupo, Anthony Vocat, Riccardo Rizzo

Glycosphingolipids are important components of the plasma membrane where they modulate the activities of membrane proteins including signalling receptors. Glycosphingolipid synthesis relies on competing reactions catalysed by Golgi-resident enzymes during ...

WILEY2021

Passive and active ion permeation through lipid bilayers investigated by second harmonic water imaging

Maksim Eremchev

Lipid membranes are complex and dynamic systems which are known to mediate signaling processes between cells and their environment. To do this multiple ion channels and pumps are involved in controlling the in- and out-flux of various ions (K+, Na+, Mg2+, ...

EPFL2021

Cell-to-cell variability plays a key role in tissue patterning by setting initial asymmetry that primes cell fate decisions. Fluctuations in the activity of regulatory molecules can commit individual cells to divergent differentiation pathways, and cell-to ...

Live-cell lipid biochemistry reveals a role of diacylglycerol side-chain composition for cellular lipid dynamics and protein affinities

Milena Maria Schuhmacher, Pavel Barahtjan

Every cell produces thousands of distinct lipid species, but insight into how lipid chemical diversity contributes to biological signaling is lacking, particularly because of a scarcity of methods for quantitatively studying lipid function in living cells. ...

2020

Environmental awareness is an essential attribute of all organisms. The homeoviscous adaptation system of Bacillus subtilis provides a powerful experimental model for the investigation of stimulus detection and signaling mechanisms at the molecular level. ...

American Society for Microbiology2019

Lipid messengers exert their function on short time scales at distinct subcellular locations, yet most experimental approaches for perturbing their levels trigger cell-wide concentration changes. Herein, we report on a coumarin-based photocaging group that ...

Sphingolipid metabolic flow controls phosphoinositide turnover at the trans ‐Golgi network

Giovanni D'Angelo, Howard Riezman, Riccardo Rizzo

Sphingolipids are membrane lipids globally required for eukaryotic life. The sphingolipid content varies among endomembranes with pre- and post-Golgi compartments being poor and rich in sphingolipids, respectively. Due to this different sphingolipid conten ...

2017

Membranes, composed of a variety of lipids and other biomolecules, mediate signaling processes between cells and their aqueous environment. To fulfill this function, membranes can vary their composition leaflet-specific and thus alter their surface propert ...

Lipid Builder: A Framework To Build Realistic Models for Biological Membranes

Matteo Dal Peraro, Thomas Lemmin, Giorgio Elikem Tamo, Christophe Bovigny, Nicolas Grégoire Maïno

The physical and chemical characterization of biological membranes is of fundamental importance for understanding the functional role of lipid bilayers in shaping cells and organelles, steering vesicle trafficking and promoting membrane-protein signaling. ...
