Lipid droplet shape and tendency towards budding: insight from theory and molecular simulations

Vincent Nieto, Jackson Crowley, François Deslandes, Abdou Rachid Thiam, Lionel Foret, Luca Monticelli

This study uses molecular dynamics simulations and theoretical models to analyze the shape and budding propensity of lipid droplets, finding that their shape resembles a spherical cap and is influenced by membrane properties.

Steric Repulsion Counteracts ER-to-Lipid Droplet Protein Movement

Alicia Damm, Mohyeddine Omrane, Ozren Stojanović, Bianca M. Esch, Mehdi Zouiouich, Maxime Carpentier, Robin W. Klemm, Florian Fröhlich, Lionel Foret, Abdou Rachid Thiam

The paper identifies steric repulsion as a mechanism regulating ER-to-LD protein movement, showing high-affinity proteins exclude lower-affinity ones during adipocyte differentiation.
