Drosophila embryos allocate lipid droplets to specific lineages to ensure punctual development and redox homeostasis.
Lipid droplets (LDs) are ubiquitous organelles that facilitate neutral lipid storage in cells, including energy-dense triglycerides. They are found in all investigated metazoan embryos where they are thought to provide energy for development. Intriguingly, early embryos of diverse metazoan species a...
