The lipid handbook

TL;DR: In this article, the authors present an overview of the medical and agricultural aspects of lipids, including properties of lipid metabolism, structural and physical properties, as well as chemical properties.
Journal ArticleDOI

Lipids and lipid metabolism in eukaryotic algae

TL;DR: Attempts to discover genes that code for expression of the various proteins involved in the production of very long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids such as arachidonic, eicosapentaenoic and docosahexaenoic acids are described.

Lipids in plants and microbes

TL;DR: The lipid composition of plants and microorganisms is affected by terpenoids and steroids, and lipid distributions in different organisms and their use in taxonomy are studied.
Journal ArticleDOI

Does the membrane's physical state control the expression of heat shock and other genes?

TL;DR: Recent data show that the expression of several genes, particularly those that respond to changes in temperature, ageing or disease, is influenced and/or controlled by the membrane's physical state.
