Lipin proteins and glycerolipid metabolism: Roles at the ER membrane and beyond

Abstract: The regulation of glycerolipid biosynthesis is critical for homeostasis of cellular lipid stores and membranes. Here we review the role of lipin phosphatidic acid phosphatase enzymes in glycerolipid synthesis. Lipin proteins are unique among glycerolipid biosynthetic enzymes in their ability to transit among cellular membranes, rather than remain membrane tethered. We focus on the mechanisms that underlie lipin protein interactions with membranes and the versatile roles of lipins in several organelles, includi… Show more

“…LPIN1 is expressed in many human tissues, but the very severe muscle phenotype may relate to the fact that human skeletal muscle has among the highest LPIN1 expression levels, with little or no expression of LPIN2 or LPIN3 [27]. Several pathogenic LPIN1 mutations have been identified, including deletions, nonsense, missense or frame-shift changes in the protein coding sequence.…”
