Missed our early December webinar with James Olzmann? Catch it here: www.lipidmaps.org/resources/ed... The webinar offered key insights into lipid metabolism and ferroptosis. Attendees learned about the impact of lipid droplets on cellular lipid balance and ferroptosis. #LipidDroplets #Lipidomics

The December issue is online:
https://embopress.org/toc/14693178/25/12
The cover features work by Stacey Gilk identifying a novel #bacterial effector protein that mediates ER-LD #membrane contacts to regulate host #lipiddroplets.

How do #viruses exploit host cell #lipiddroplets for their replication?
Binbin Ding and coworkers show #SARSCoV2 ORF6 protein to bring lipid droplets in contact with ER and #mitochondria to alter cellular #lipid flux

Ivanovska et al. Small lipid droplets are rigid enough to indent a nucleus, dilute the lamina, and cause rupture. @JCellBiol
One of those findings that sounds really surprising (almost contradictory) but then makes you realise that you had no idea how rigid a lipid droplet was anyway!

Our paper "ATGL promotes prostaglandin-dependent actin remodeling by regulating substrate release from lipid droplets" was accepted with minor revisions by Development!!!! #lipiddroplets #prostaglandin #Drosophila #oogenesis #actin

Thinking about lipid droplets a lot lately. So many of them here 👇 #lipiddroplets (in green) #microscopy

Are you also fascinated by #InterorganellarCommunication via #MembraneContactSites?
Check out my weekly report, summarizing the latest work on membrane contact sites.

This week’s issue entails 8 publications, addressing MCS aspects in #Autophagy, #LipidDroplets, #SuperResolutionMicroscopy and more!
This is in close collaboration with #BioMedNews, a #MachineLearning platform that pre-selects potentially interesting work for me to curate and do the final assortment.

Active #lipids enable intelligent swimming of #microplankton under nutrient limitation https://phys.org/news/2022-11-microplankton-lipids-enable-intelligent-nutrient.html #protists #plankton #biophysics
Active reconfiguration of cytoplasmic #LipidDroplets governs migration of nutrient-limited #phytoplankton https://www.science.org/doi/10.1126/sciadv.abn6005
#Algae adopt a thrifty lifestyle when nutrients turn limiting. They strategically harness internal lipids to regulate swimming properties to maximize their fitness.
