Journal ArticleDOI
Cellular uptake and intracellular trafficking of long chain fatty acids.
Mark J. McArthur,Barbara P. Atshaves,Andrey Frolov,William D. Foxworth,Ann B. Kier,Friedhelm Schroeder +5 more
TL;DR: The emerging picture is that the cell has multiple, overlapping mechanisms that assure adequate uptake and directed intracellular movement of LCFA required for maintenance of physiological functions.
Journal ArticleDOI
Recent advances in membrane cholesterol domain dynamics and intracellular cholesterol trafficking
Friedhelm Schroeder,Andrey Frolov,Eric J. Murphy,Barbara P. Atshaves,John R. Jefferson,Lixia Pu,W. Gibson Wood,William B. Foxworth,Ann B. Kier +8 more
TL;DR: Based on the fundamental observation that cholesterol is not distributed uniformly in the cell, three key concepts have contributed to recent advances in this field: First, cholesterol is asymmetrically distributed across the cell surface plasma membrane, wherein it translocates rapidly.
Journal ArticleDOI
Sterol carrier protein-2, a new fatty acyl coenzyme a-binding protein
TL;DR: The ability of sterol carrier protein-2 (SCP-2) to interact with long chain fatty acyl-CoAs was examined and data show for the first time that SCP-2 is a fatty acel-CoA-binding protein.
Journal ArticleDOI
Recent advances in membrane microdomains: rafts, caveolae, and intracellular cholesterol trafficking.
Friedhelm Schroeder,Adalberto M. Gallegos,Barbara P. Atshaves,Stephen M. Storey,Avery L. McIntosh,Anca D. Petrescu,Huan Huang,Olga Starodub,Hsu Chao,Huiqin Yang,Andrey Frolov,Ann B. Kier +11 more
TL;DR: Increasing evidence obtained with model and isolated cell membranes, transfected cells, genetic mutants, and gene-ablated mice suggests that proteins such as caveolin, sterol carrier protein-2 (SCP-2), Niemann-Pick C1 protein, steroidogenic acute regulatory protein (StAR), and other intracellular proteins mediate intrACEllular cholesterol transfer.
Journal ArticleDOI
Fatty acid binding protein isoforms: structure and function
TL;DR: Which FABPs form biochemically defined or true isoforms versus FABP that form additional forms, operationally defined as isoforms, is critically evaluated.
