Abstract: ABSTRACT LC3/GABARAP constitute a macroautophagy/autophagy-related protein family derived from yeast Atg8. The involvement of specific lipids in LC3/GABARAP function is poorly understood. Exploring the interaction of LC3/GABARAP proteins with phosphatidylcholine- or sphingomyelin-based bilayers has revealed… read more here.

Abstract: Cyt proteins are insecticidal proteins originally from Bacillus thuringiensis. The lipid binding of the Cyt2Aa2 protein depends on the phase of the lipid bilayer. In this work, the importance of the conserved T144 residue in… read more here.
