A protein tunnel that shuttles lipids around the cell

The high-resolution structure of a bridge-like lipid-transfer protein that moves lipids between cellular compartments shows how these ‘lipid superhighways’ operate. The high-resolution structure of a ‘superhighway’ for lipids in cells has been obtained.

Abstract

The high-resolution structure of a bridge-like lipid-transfer protein that moves lipids between cellular compartments shows how these ‘lipid superhighways’ operate. The high-resolution structure of a ‘superhighway’ for lipids in cells has been obtained.
