Beschreibung:Lecture topics:
Key functions of cell membranes; historical perspectives on membrane organization; evolutionary origin of cell membranes; co-evolution of lipids and proteins; membrane biogenesis; the lipid metabolic network; lipid polymorphism; how cells control membrane stability and fluidity; how cells repair membranes; the lipid code; lipid landscapes and organelle identity; lipid transport and homeostasis; Golgi as lipid filter; lipid flippases, sensors and transfer proteins; imaging lipid transport and distribution; unraveling lipid-protein crosstalk; how defects in lipid homeostasis culminate in disease; lipids in host-pathogen interactions; how pathogens exploit the host lipid metabolic network; experimental approaches to unravel the lipid code.
