This study investigates how 1-deoxysphingolipids affect membrane properties and cargo trafficking in the early secretory pathway by analyzing their subcellular distribution and effects on ER membrane fluidity and ERES.

This study shows that peroxisomes interact with the Golgi in Drosophila insulin-producing cells to regulate sphingolipid composition and support insulin-like peptide secretion.

This paper identifies Bez, a scavenger receptor in Drosophila, as essential for lipid transfer from fat body to oocytes, contributing to reproductive success.
