摘要

DNA may carry all of the instructions, and proteins may do most of the work, but a cell would not be a cell without lipids. These molecules, which number in the thousands, include important natural products such as fatty acids, phospholipids, and sterols (1) and work at jobs as varied as forming the protective membranes that shelter cells from the outside world to acting as targets for receptors or second messengers in signal transduction cascades. Indeed, problems with lipid metabolism contribute to atherosclerosis, diabetes, and inflammation.rnPerhaps no scientist has contributed as much to the important field of lipid biochemistry in recent years as Chris Raetz, the George Barth Geller Professor for Research in Molecular Biology at Duke University Medical Center (Durham, NC). Raetz has made fundamental contributions to understanding how these building blocks of biological membranes are assembled, particularly in bacteria.
