Lipids are a diverse group of molecules, that includes phospholipids, neutral lipids, steroids, and many more classes. The structure of lipids plays a fundamental role in determining their properties and functions.
We created a tool for seamless navigation through this heterogeneous group of molecules.
Our approach is to classify lipids ‘by structure’ in this case allows for a simple and logical way to visualize different lipid categories and classes.
You can also find some interesting facts about lipids there. For example, did you know that lysophosphatidylethanolamines (LPEs) delay senescence of leaves, flowers, and fruits?
