Article Title: Chemically defined lipid diets reveal the versatility of lipidome remodeling in genomically minimal cells
doi: 10.1101/2024.10.04.616688
Figure Lengend Snippet: a . Membrane lipidome species sorted by abundance from the largest to the lowest, with an average power fit shown as a black line. Dashed vertical lines show the separation point of lipidomes into high- and low- abundance species, using Kneed algorithm (see methods for details). The inset barplots show the average abundance, covered by the high-abundance species in the sample. b . Numberical value for each of the samples average power fit, plotted against the respective lipidome size. c . Average R2 (goodness of fit) plotted against the respective lipidome size for each of the diets. For all scatter plots in a,b and c the markers represent the average value for 6 replicates (3 for 37°C and 3 for 30°C), with respective standard deviations. d . Relative cellular fitness, estimated as the sum of ranks, assigned to each of the experimental readouts in this study (growth rates at 37°C, homeoviscous adaptation as the difference between Pro12A GP values at 37°C and 30°C, osmotic sensitivity at 37°C and 30°C). For details see methods.
Article Snippet: Pro12A general polarization was calculated according to the formula: Measurements are carried out in Tecan Spark 20 multimode microplate reader, equipped with a thermostat capable of maintaining the temperature with the accuracy of +/- 1°C.
