Abstract:Lipid metabolism is one of the cornerstones of biochemistry, and these chemically diverse biomolecules play key roles in molecular physiology and mediate interactions between microbes and their environment that play out on cell ular to ecosystem scales. Marine phytoplankton fix in the range of 1 billion tonnes of carbon as lipid biomass each year, which goes on to fuel higher trophic levels or ends up in the marine dissolved organic matter pool. Yet despite the importance of the vast marine lipidome for global… Show more
