  • The idea that magnetic particles suspended in a liquid crystal might spontaneously orient into a ferromagnetic state has hitherto not been confirmed experimentally, but such a state has now been realized using nanometre-sized ferromagnetic platelets in a nematic liquid crystal.

  • Lipid droplets are cellular organelles important for cellular homeostasis and their disruption has been implicated in many diseases. Here the authors use a large amphipathic helix from perilipin 4 to uncover parameters important for specific lipid droplet targeting and stabilization of the oil core.

  • Osh6p and Osh7p are yeast lipid transfer proteins (LTPs) that must transiently interact with membranes but how they escape from the electrostatic attraction of the plasma membrane is unclear. Here authors show that Osh6p reduces its avidity for anionic membranes once it captures PS or PI4P, due to a molecular lid closing its lipid-binding pocket.
