The Myo2 adaptor Ldm1 and its receptor Ldo16 mediate actin-dependent lipid droplet motility
Zhao et al. identify the molecular machinery for lipid droplet motility, consisting
of the type V myosin Myo2, the Myo2 adaptor protein Ldm1, and its surface receptor
Ldo16. They uncover a molecular l...

Fat storage in the body relies on specialized structures called lipid droplets. In a new Science study, researchers identified the microprotein adipogenin as a regulator of adipocyte lipid droplet size, revealing a key mechanism in lipid homeostasis.

Excited to share our study out in @natcellbio.nature.com! Led by @mikelangelipid.bsky.social, we identify the first #LipidDroplet lipid quality control pathway: LD-localized FSP1 protects stored lipids from oxidative damage and prevents LD-initiated #ferroptosis.

FSP1-mediated lipid droplet quality control prevents neutral lipid peroxidation and ferroptosis - Nature Cell Biology
Lange et al. identify a lipid droplet quality control pathway in which FSP1 safeguards stored neutral lipids from lipid peroxidation, thereby preventing the induction of ferroptosis.

🎉 Huge congrats to Maya Schuldiner from the Weizmann Institute (Israel) for the 🏅 Otto Warburg Medal 2026!
Her work on how proteins find their way to organelles and how these organelles talk to each other has reshaped how we think about cells 🧬✨
