The lack of fatty aldehyde dehydrogenase function in Sjögren Larsson Syndrome (SLS) patient cells not only impairs the conversion of fatty aldehydes into their corresponding fatty acid but also has an effect on connected pathways. Alteration of the lipid profile in these cells is thought to be
Intracellular lipid amounts are regulated not only by metabolism but also by efflux. Yeast Rsb1 is the only known transporter/floppase of the sphingolipid components long-chain bases (LCBs). However, even fundamental knowledge about Rsb1, such as important amino acid residues for activity and
Chinese hamster ovary cells (CHO-K1) photosensitized with 12-(1'-pyrene)dodecanoic acid (P12) are killed when exposed to long wavelength ultraviolet (UV) light (greater than 300 nm). Mutants deficient in plasmalogen biosynthesis are hypersensitive to this treatment. We now demonstrate that
