A complete, engaging and exam-focused lesson for Pearson Edexcel International A Level Biology Unit 1, covering the structure and biological importance of lipids. This resource is designed to move ...

In addition to providing energy, lipids are also essential building blocks of our cell membranes. However, despite their importance, they remain poorly understood. For the first time, a team from the ...

The high-resolution structure of a bridge-like lipid-transfer protein that moves lipids between cellular compartments shows how these ‘lipid superhighways’ operate. Cells and their organelles are ...

Make complex biology concepts easier to see, understand, and remember. This full-color Biology Visual Learning Guide is designed for Grade 8 and middle school science students who benefit from clear ...

Epithelial cells form the body's frontline barriers, helping keep microbes, toxins and other harmful substances out. Yet ...

Lipids in cell membranes regulate the activity of a cancer-linked protein, cell biologists at RIKEN have discovered. This finding, published in the journal eLife, could pave the way for novel ...

A new microfluidic method preserves worm anatomy to link lipid signals with body structure using mass spectrometry imaging. Understanding how fat molecules are distributed and function in living ...

The brain is often described in terms of cells and wiring. However, much of it is made of lipids that form the membranes of ...
