Structural determinants of lipid specificity within Ups/PRELI lipid transfer proteins

The Ups/PRELI family mediates intramitochondrial lipid distribution and synthesis by shuttling phospholipids between both mitochondrial membranes. Here the authors combine X-ray crystallography, MD simulations and yeast genetic screens and identify residues that are important for Ups/PRELI lipid spe...
