Lipids are not just fuel, but a protection mechanism for cancer cells that modulates how they communicate with the immune system." Future work will determine whether this holds true for multiple ...

Numerous proteins target lipid droplets (LDs) through amphipathic helices (AHs). It is generally assumed that AHs insert bulky hydrophobic residues in packing defects at the LD surface. However, this ...

We demonstrate that to permit long-term survival in response to sudden glucose depletion, yeast cells activate lipid-droplet (LD) consumption through micro-lipophagy (µ-lipophagy), in which fat is ...
