  1. #Staphylococcus secretes toxins such as PVL to kill immune cells, incl macrophages. This study shows that PVL binds anionic #phospholipids under acidic conditions, targeting lysosomal & mitochondrial #membranes (but not plasma membrane) to promote bacterial escape @PLOSBiology plos.io/3RvcArh

  2. Under pressure: How #CombJellies have adapted to life at the bottom of the ocean

    "#Ctenophores have developed unique lipid structures to compensate for the intense pressure that are separate from the ones that compensate for intense cold... so much so that the pressure is actually what's holding their cell membranes together"

  7. The counterpart to nanorobotics is molecular robotics, where instead of building a robotic structure out of metallic components, one uses synthetic phospholipids and other gradient-forming hydrophobic materials.

    Scientists at Tohoku University have successfully created self-forming structures scalable to even macro sizes for use in general robotics.
