Role for formin-like 1-dependent acto-myosin assembly in lipid droplet dynamics and lipid storage

Lipid droplets (LDs) are cellular organelles dedicated to triacylglycerol storage that can undergo fusion and dissociation events. Here the authors show that formin-like 1-dependent acto-myosin assembly on LDs facilitates their dissociation and, as a consequence, affects hydrolysis and storage of tr...

Sumario:Lipid droplets (LDs) are cellular organelles dedicated to triacylglycerol storage that can undergo fusion and dissociation events. Here the authors show that formin-like 1-dependent acto-myosin assembly on LDs facilitates their dissociation and, as a consequence, affects hydrolysis and storage of triacylglycerols.
