Plant-Unique <i>cis</i>/<i>trans</i> Isomerism of Long-Chain Base Unsaturation is Selectively Required for Aluminum Tolerance Resulting from Glucosylceramide-Dependent Plasma Membrane Fluidity
<i>Cis</i>/<i>trans</i> isomerism of the Δ8 unsaturation of long-chain base (LCB) is found only in plant sphingolipids. This unique geometry is generated by sphingolipid LCB Δ8 desaturase SLD which produces both isomers at various ratios, resulting in divers...
