FIT2 proteins and lipid droplet emergence, an interplay between phospholipid synthesis, surface tension, and membrane curvature

Lipid droplets (LDs) serve as intracellular compartments primarily dedicated to the storage of metabolic energy in the form of neutral lipids. The processes that regulate and control LD biogenesis are being studied extensively and are gaining significance due to their implications in major metabolic...
