Article Synopsis
- Saccharomyces cerevisiae LIP1 is a part of a team that helps make special fats called sphingolipids, which are important for cell membranes.
- Scientists created a new yeast strain that could be turned off with a drug called Dox, and they found that when LIP1 was off, the yeast had trouble growing and making sphingolipids.
- The research showed that when sphingolipid levels were low, a signaling pathway called TORC2 could still activate certain proteins, which helps control how sphingolipids are made in cells.
