Decades-old structural mystery surrounding the birth of energy-storing lipid droplets solved
In humans, virtually every cell stores fat. However, patients with a rare condition called congenital lipodystrophy, which is often diagnosed in childhood, cannot properly store fat, which accumulates in the body's organs and increases the risk of early death from heart or liver disease. In 2001, a transmembrane protein called seipin was identified as a…

Novel structural mechanism of membrane remodelling caused by the protein MakA from Vibrio cholerae
Research performed at Umeå University, Sweden, has led to the discovery of a pH-induced structural mechanism of membrane remodelling caused by the protein MakA, a subunit of the recently described α-pore-forming toxin from the pathogenic bacterium Vibrio cholerae. Collaborating scientists affiliated with MIMS and UCMR publish their new findings in the journal eLife. All types…
