Open AccessQuantitative whole-cell MALDI-TOF MS fingerprints distinguishes human monocyte sub-populations activated by distinct microbial ligands
Conventionally, human monocyte sub-populations are classified according to surface marker expression into classical (CD14++CD16−), intermediate (CD14++CD16+) and non-classical (CD14+CD16++) lineages. The involvem...

Role of Cholinephosphotransferase and Diacylglycerol Acyltransferase in Channeling Unusual Fatty Acids into the Triacylglycerol Pool During Oilseed Development
Diacylglycerols (DAGs) synthesized through the Kennedy pathway are precursors of both membrane (phosphatidylcholine: PC) and storage glycerolipids (triacylglycerol: TAG) [Fig. 1]. In plants that store unusual fat...
