Acyl chain length affects ceramide action on sterol/sphingomyelin-rich domains.
The effects of ceramides with varying saturated N-linked acyl chains (C2-C14) on cholesterol displacement from sphingomyelin-rich domains and on the stability of ordered domains were studied. The bilayers examined were made from 1-palmitoyl-2-oleoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine (POPC), D-erythro-N-palmitoyl-sphingomyelin (PSM), D-erythro-N-acyl-sphingosine, and cholesterol (60:15:15:10 mol%, res...
متن کاملLipid Acyl Chain Remodeling in Yeast
Membrane lipid homeostasis is maintained by de novo synthesis, intracellular transport, remodeling, and degradation of lipid molecules. Glycerophospholipids, the most abundant structural component of eukaryotic membranes, are subject to acyl chain remodeling, which is defined as the post-synthetic process in which one or both acyl chains are exchanged. Here, we review studies addressing acyl ch...
متن کاملOxidative stress elicited by modifying the ceramide acyl chain length reduces the rate of clathrin-mediated endocytosis.
Sphingolipids modulate clathrin-mediated endocytosis (CME) by altering the biophysical properties of membranes. We now examine CME in astrocytes cultured from ceramide synthase 2 (CerS2) null mice, which have an altered sphingolipid acyl chain composition. The rate of endocytosis of low-density lipoprotein and transferrin, which are internalized via CME, was reduced in CerS2 null astrocytes, al...
متن کاملAcyl Chain Length of Phosphatidylserine Is Correlated with Plant Lifespan
Plant lifespan is affected by factors with genetic and environmental bases. The laws governing these two factors and how they affect plant lifespan are unclear. Here we show that the acyl chain length (ACL) of phosphatidylserine (PS) is correlated with plant lifespan. Among the detected eight head-group classes of membrane lipids with lipidomics based on triple quadrupole tandem mass spectromet...
متن کاملLength matters
Mdm2 can mediate p53 ubiquitylation and degradation either in the form of the Mdm2 homodimer or Mdm2/MdmX heterodimer. The ubiquitin ligase activity of these complexes resides mainly in their respective RING finger domains and also requires adjacent C-terminal tails. So far, structural studies have failed to show significant differences between Mdm2 RING homodimers and Mdm2/MdmX RING heterodime...
