Learning the lipid language of plant signalling.
Plant cells respond to different biotic and abiotic stresses by producing various uncommon phospholipids that are believed to play key roles in cell signalling. We can predict how they work because animal and yeast proteins have been shown to have specific lipid-binding domains, which act as docking sites. When such proteins are recruited to the membrane locations where these phospholipids are ...
متن کاملPlant-Derived Phenolics Inhibit the Accrual of Structurally Characterised Protein and Lipid Oxidative Modifications
Epidemiological data suggest that plant-derived phenolics beneficial effects include an inhibition of LDL oxidation. After applying a screening method based on 2,4-dinitrophenyl hydrazine-protein carbonyl reaction to 21 different plant-derived phenolic acids, we selected the most antioxidant ones. Their effect was assessed in 5 different oxidation systems, as well as in other model proteins. Ma...
متن کاملQuantitation, networking, and function of protein phosphorylation in plant cell
Protein phosphorylation is one of the most important post-translational modifications (PTMs) as it participates in regulating various cellular processes and biological functions. It is therefore crucial to identify phosphorylated proteins to construct a phosphor-relay network, and eventually to understand the underlying molecular regulatory mechanism in response to both internal and external st...
متن کامل20 Fats and Oils – Plant BasedAmy
Fats and oils are water-insoluble compounds consisting of mainly triacylglycerols: three fatty acids esterified to a glycerol molecule. Products are generally called “fats” when they are solid at room temperature and “oils” when they are liquid at room temperature, although the terms are often used interchangeably. Edible fats and oils contribute to the flavor, texture, aroma, and mouthfeel of ...
متن کاملMonounsaturated fats and immune function.
Animal studies suggest that olive oil is capable of modulating functions of cells of the immune system in a manner similar to, albeit weaker than, fish oils. There is some evidence that the effects of olive oil on immune function in animal studies are due to oleic acid rather than to trace elements or antioxidants. Importantly, several studies have demonstrated effects of oleic acid-containing ...
