Nuclear Lipid Signaling

Lipid Signaling is one form of cell communication that goes on in a cell. Without this feature the cell would not be able to survive for much of its time. Now the technology and advancement in Biology has determined that the existence of phospholipids is within the nucleus and not in the nuclear membrane. The nucleus is a double membrane made of phospholipids and protein, but the intranuclear space itself contains lipids. This article describes the setup, experiment, and conclusion that prove the existence of lipids in the nucleus.
Another nuclear lipid that was included in this article was the phosphorylated inositol lipid. The first sign of inositides in the nucleus different from those in the plasma membrane came from experiments showing that in rat liver nuclei incubated with ATP. They removed the nuclear envelope with a detergent which decreased the incorporation of phosphate, which and crude fractions of membranes prepared from nuclei showed some incorporation, which led t...
