#Lipids are fatty #molecules that play critical roles in cell function, including membrane structure, energy storage and nutrient absorption. Most lipids are made in a cell #organelle called the #endoplasmic reticulum, but specific lipid types are shuttled around to different parts of the cell depending on their purpose.

How #lipids in the membrane of the #endoplasmic reticulum of #plant cells interact with #proteins to organize the first step of protein transport has long been an unsolved mystery.

#Newswire: New Wave Biotech has partnered with CPI, the UK’s national translational research and innovation organisation, to apply hybrid AI-powered downstream processes simulation to one of industrial biotech’s most persistent bottlenecks: lipid extraction. The project will also extend to intracellular bioprocesses, exploring how digital-first methods can improve scalability across multiple applications.

As we* hoped, my co-authored #marine GDGT « cookbook » #review #paper (https://doi.org/10.5194/egusphere-2025-1467) was accepted for publication in the @EuroGeosciences #journal #Biogeosciences after peer-review and (minor) revision! 🥳 🍾

Title and author list of the online preprint by Bijl and Sliwinska et al. (submitted to Biogeosciences) EGUsphere (https://doi.org/10.5194/egusphere-2025-1467) entitled "Reviews and syntheses: Best practices for the application of marine GDGTs as proxy for paleotemperatures: sampling, processing, analyses, interpretation, and archiving protocols", with a note which reads "Revised manuscript accepted for BG"—"BG" stands for "Biogeosciences"—and the co-editor-in-chief’s comment which reads "This publication provides a comprehensive review of the use of GDGTs (Glycerol Dialkyl Glycerol Tetraethers) for reconstructing past temperatures, with a particular focus on marine applications. It covers the full research workflow — from sample collection and processing to analytical methodologies, data interpretation, and data archiving. Importantly, the authors highlight best practices and propose recommendations to standardize approaches across the field. This review therefore serves as a valuable reference for both the paleoclimatology and organic geochemistry communities.".
