Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Abstract Biological membranes consist of a complex array of proteins and lipids that create selective permeability barriers in cells. Another function of membrane lipids is their degradation to generate ‘lipid second messengers’ that can regulate important cellular functions such as cell division and cell death. The major membrane lipids of eukaryotic cells are the glycerophospholipids, the sterols and the sphingolipids. The most abundant glycerophospholipids in eukaryotic cells are phosphatidylcholine and phosphatidylethanolamine, each of which is synthesised by two independent pathways. The glycosphingolipids consist of structures in which ceramide is attached to a variety of oligosaccharide chains to create an enormously diverse class of lipids that are highly enriched on the cell surface. In mammalian cells, cholesterol is the most abundant sterol in membranes, whereas plants and fungi do not contain cholesterol per se but instead contain sterols that are related to cholesterol; prokaryotic membranes do not contain sterols. Key Concepts: Lipid bilayers provide the fundamental architecture of biological membranes. Cellular phospholipid levels are tightly regulated. Major classes of phospholipids are made by more than one pathway. Acyl chain composition of phospholipids can be modified by deacylation. The cholesterol‐lowering statin drugs regulate cholesterol biosynthesis at the step catalysed by 3‐hydroxy‐3‐methylglutaryl‐CoA reductase.

Full frame distilled prediction

Teacher imitation

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
