epitope corresponding to amino acids 261-380 mapping within an internal region of Lipin-1 of human origin
Modification Notes
The Lipin family of nuclear proteins contains three members: Lipin-1, Lipin-2 and Lipin-3, all of which contain a nuclear signal sequence, a highly conserved amino-terminal (NLIP) domain, and a carboxy-terminal (CLIP) domain. Lipin-1 is crucial for normal adipose tissue development and metabolism. Lipin-1 selectively activates a subset of PGC-1alpha target pathways, including fatty acid oxidation and mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation by inducing expression of the nuclear receptor PPARalpha. Lipin-1 also inactivates the lipogenic program and suppresses circulating lipid levels. An abundance of Lipin-1 promotes fat accumulation and insulin sensitivity, whereas a deficiency in Lipin-1 may deter normal adipose tissue development, resulting in insulin resistance and lipodystrophy, a heterogeneous group of disorders characterized by loss of body fat, fatty liver, hypertriglyceridemia and insulin resistance.
