Structure of the yeast ceramide synthase

Jan-Hannes Schäfer Lena Clausmeyer, Carolin Körner, Bianca M. Esch , Verena N. Wolf , Stefan Walter, Dovile Januliene, Arne Moeller, Florian Fröhlich Ceramides play a pivotal role as essential lipids, serving as foundational components for complex sphingolipids and potent signaling molecules. Ceramides are the products of the N-acylation of a sphingoid base and a CoA-activated …

Structure of the endosomal CORVET tethering complex

Dmitry Shvarev, Caroline König, Nicole Susan, Lars Langemeyer, Stefan Walter, Angela Perz, Florian Fröhlich, Christian Ungermann, Arne Moeller Cells depend on their endolysosomal system for nutrient uptake and downregulation of plasma membrane proteins. These processes rely on endosomal maturation, which requires multiple membrane fusion steps. Early endosome fusion is promoted by the Rab5 GTPase and …
