Ist2 is a #phospholipid scramblase that links #lipid transport at the ER to organelle homeostasis, say Heitor Gobbi Sebinelli, Camille Syska, Hafez Razmazma, Luca Monticelli, Guillaume Lenoir, Alenka Čopič @umontpellier.bsky.social et al: rupress.org/jcb/article/...
#Biophysics #ER_literature
Sebinelli, Syska, Razmazma et al. @umontpellier.bsky.social show that the yeast protein Ist2, which localizes to ER–PM contact sites, possesses a #phospholipid scramblase activity in its ER-localized transmembrane domain that is important for several ER-related processes. rupress.org/jcb/article/...
☕Wang, Wilfahrt et al show that phosphoethanolamine, a #phospholipid intermediate, is enriched in #tumor interstitial fluid and induces T cell dysfunction, in part by depleting diacylglycerol and dampening T cell receptor signaling.

I would like to start the week with an older post from the other side on our discovery that #PIP3 is an #IFN-inducible #phospholipid required for endosomal #IFITM3 #antiviral #immunity & can be harnessed to #boost restriction against #viruses such as #Omicron 🦠 👉🏻
