Lipids in health and disease, 11, 161-161 (2012-11-23)
Many disorders with plasmalogen deficiency have been reported. Replenishment or replacement of tissue plasmalogens of these disorders would be beneficial to the patients with these disorders, but effects of dietary plasmalogen on mammals have not been reported. Plasmalogens were purified
Chondroitin sulfate (CS), the carbohydrate chain of chondroitin sulfate proteoglycans, is involved in neuronal circuit formation during development. CS shows great structural diversity with combination of disaccharide units of different structure (A-, C-, D-, or E-unit). However, whether its structural

Understanding lipid-protein interactions to enhance our knowledge of membrane architecture is a critical step in the development of novel therapeutic measures to respond to the drastic rise of drug resistant microorganisms. Escherichia coli contains a small archetypal inner membrane multidrug

Phosphatidylcholine (PC) produced via the S-adenosylmethionine-dependent phosphatidylethanolamine (PE) N-methyltransferase (PEMT) pathway is enriched with docosahexaenoic acid (DHA). DHA plays a critical role in fetal development and is linked to health endpoints in adulthood. It is unknown whether choline, which can
The Journal of biological chemistry, 288(8), 5873-5885 (2013-01-17)
Energy-dependent uphill transport but not energy-independent downhill transport by lactose permease (LacY) is impaired when expressed in Escherichia coli cells or reconstituted in liposomes lacking phosphatidylethanolamine (PE) and containing only anionic phospholipids. The absence of PE results in inversion of
