Lipid droplets in chordates are decorated by two or more members of the perilipin family of
lipid droplet surface proteins. The perilipins sequester lipids by protecting lipid droplets from …

Lipid droplets (LDs) are ubiquitous dynamic organelles that store and supply lipids in all
eukaryotic and some prokaryotic cells for energy metabolism, membrane synthesis, and …

Lipids are essential building blocks synthesized by complex molecular pathways and
deposited as lipid droplets (LDs) in cells. LDs are evolutionary conserved organelles found …

Lipid droplets (LDs) are found in most cells, where they play central roles in energy and
membrane lipid metabolism. The de novo biogenesis of LDs is a fascinating, yet poorly …

Cytoplasmic lipid droplets are important organelles in nearly every eukaryotic and some
prokaryotic cells. Storing and providing energy is their main function, but they do not work in …

Lipid droplets (LDs) are found in all cells and play critical roles in lipid metabolism. De novo
LD biogenesis occurs in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) but is not well understood. We …

Our knowledge of inter-organellar communication has grown exponentially in recent years.
This review focuses on the interactions that cytoplasmic lipid droplets have with other …

In plants, sterols are found in free form (free sterols, FSs) and conjugated as steryl esters
(SEs), steryl glycosides (SGs) and acyl steryl glycosides (ASGs). Conjugated sterols are …

Lipid droplets (LDs) were initially described as fat storage organelles in adipocytes, but are
increasingly recognized as dynamic players in lipid metabolism, with important roles not …

Lipid droplets (LDs) store fats and play critical roles in lipid and energy homeostasis. They
form between the leaflets of the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) membrane and consist of a …
