Protein-lipid interactions refer to the interactions between proteins and lipids within biological membranes. These interactions are crucial for various cellular processes, including signal transduction, membrane trafficking, and membrane organization. Understanding how proteins interact with lipids can provide insights into the mechanisms underlying these processes and can help in the development of targeted therapies for diseases associated with membrane dysfunction. Research in this area often involves studying the specific binding sites and structural changes that occur during protein-lipid interactions, as well as the functional consequences of these interactions on cellular processes.
