Lipids can be systematically classified according to functional properties, structural features, biochemical origin or biological system. However Lipid nomenclature has yet to become a robust research ...

Elsevier, a world-leading provider of scientific, technical and medical information products and services, today announced the availability of the Lipid Structures (beta) app on SciVerse Applications.

The development of high-throughput experimentation has led to astronomical growth in biologically relevant lipids and lipid derivatives identified, screened, and deposited in numerous online databases ...

In the “omics” world, lipids have long been in the shadows, while nucleic acids and proteins hogged the limelight. But now, this broad-ranging class of biomolecules is stepping into the spotlight as ...

Scientists have developed a method for analysing the structure of lipid nanoparticles that could be used to improve vaccine and drug delivery, targeting a wide range of health issues. A team led by ...

A team from the Max-Planck-Institut für Kohlenforschung, Hokkaido University, and Osaka University has discovered that subtle differences in molecular structure can have a major impact on the ...

An AI-identified lipid called P1 delivered mRNA 14.8 times more efficiently than the clinically approved lipid ALC-0315. Lipid P1's unique three-dimensional conformation allows it to bind ...
