...Luis Alberto Luévano-Martínez; Anna L. Duncan Cardiolipin (CL) and its precursor phosphatidylglycerol (PG) are important anionic phospholipids widely distributed throughout all domains of life. They have key roles in several cellular processes by shaping membranes and modulating the activity...

...Anna L. Duncan Monolysocardiolipin (MLCL) is a three-tailed variant of cardiolipin (CL), the signature lipid of mitochondria. MLCL is not normally found in healthy tissue but accumulates in mitochondria of people with Barth syndrome (BTHS), with an overall increase in the MLCL:CL ratio. The reason...

.... The precise mechanism of the pro-apoptotic action is not fully understood yet, but could be clarified in the near future. Instrumental to this clarification is the emerging evidence that CL (cardiolipin), an unusual membrane lipid that is predominantly present in mitochondria, is required for the action...
