Lipids and Membranes: Dynamics and Interorganelle Lipid Transport

Lipids and Membranes: Dynamics and Interorganelle Lipid Transport, Volume 728 covers lipids, a chemically diverse set of biological molecules subject to rapid metabolism and transport. This dynamic behavior has motivated the development of methods across multiple disciplines for their detection and manipulation. Split into three parts, the book's chapters include topics such as Assay of phospholipid scrambling, Tracking lipid transport with bifunctional lipids, Tracking interorganelle lipid transport using genetically encoded mass tags, Molecular Dynamics Simulation of Lipid and Ligand Binding in ORD Domains, Imaging lipid droplet-organelle membrane contact sites using fluorogenic complementation, Studying interactions of amphipathic helices with lipid droplets, and more. Additional chapters cover Metabolic labeling of to trace changes in sphingolipid metabolism, Imaging intracellular lipid heterogeneity with fluorogen-activated coincidence sensing, Tagging lipoproteins in mycobacteria, Probes for studying sphingolipid dynamics, Measuring Flipper-TR Lifetime with Multiple Analysis Strategies, Reconstitution approaches to understanding cellular lipid dynamics, Prediction and characterization of the bacterial lipid handling machinery, From Molecular Dynamics to Cryo-EM: Imaging Liposomes in Silico, and much more.
