Wrapping up the fats—a structure of the lipid droplet biogenesis protein seipin

The lipid droplet (LD) biogenesis protein seipin is crucial for formation of normal LDs, but its exact functional role has been enigmatic. In this issue, Sui et al. (2018. J. Cell Biol. https://doi.org/10.1083/jcb.201809067) report the cryo­–electron microscopy structure of seipin, which provides no...
