Glycosylation Disorders

Baterial metabolism is how bacteria obtain the energy and nutrients they need to live and reproduce.The study of bacterial metabolism focuses on the chemical diversity of substrate oxidations and dissimilation reactions (reactions by which substrate molecules are broken down), which normally function in bacteria to generate energy. Also within the scope of bacterial metabolism is the study of the uptake and utilization of the inorganic or organic compounds required for growth and maintenance of a cellular steady state (assimilation reactions).

Phospholipids are the major component of cell membranes. This feed focuses on the role of gut microorganisms in phospholipid metabolism.

This feed focuses on small molecules produced by the human microbiota. Several small molecules representing each of the major metabolic classes have been identified and implicated in several biological processes including modulation of the immune system and antibiosis. Here is the latest research.

Lipid metabolism refers to the synthesis and degradation of lipids in cells and is a complex process essential for fat storage and construction of cellular membranes. Discover the latest research on lipid and membrane metabolism here.

Lipid droplets are cellular organelles that store neutral lipids enclosed in a phospholipid monolayer. They are at the centre of lipid and energy homeostasis, and several metabolic diseases including obesity and diabetes. Here is the latest research on lipid droplet biology.

Lipid metabolism is important in several cellular processes and functions including signal transduction. Disorders of lipid metabolism can occur impairing normal function. Here is the latest research on lipid metabolism and lipid disorders.

Lipidomics is a branch of metabolomics that comprehensively analyses lipids in biological systems to determine the molecules with which they interact and their function within the cell. Here is the latest research.

Lysosomal storage diseases and related disorders are a heterogeneous group of rare diseases caused by genetic mutations that result in deficiencies of specific lysosomal enzymes. Here is the latest research on lysosomal storage diseases.

This feed focuses on proteomics, transcriptomics, and metabolomics in the human microbiota, as well as on metabolic pathways and reactions that underlie physiological and biochemical properties of the cell. Here is the latest research on metabolic networks in the microbiome.

Metabolomics refers to the large-scale study of profiling all metabolites in biological systems in a non-targeted manner. Here is the latest research.
