Hypertriglyceridemia is a hallmark of many disorders, including metabolic syndrome, diabetes, atherosclerosis and obesity. A well-known cause is the deficiency of lipoprotein lipase (LPL), a key enzyme in plasma triglyceride hydrolysis. Mice carrying the combined lipase deficiency (cld) mutation show severe hypertriglyceridemia owing to a decrease in the activity of LPL and a related enzyme, hepatic lipase (HL), caused by impaired maturation of nascent LPL and hepatic lipase polypeptides in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER). Here we identify the gene containing the cld mutation as Tmem112 and rename it Lmf1 (Lipase maturation factor 1). Lmf1 encodes a transmembrane protein with an evolutionarily conserved domain of unknown function that localizes to the ER. A human subject homozygous for a deleterious mutation in LMF1 also shows combined lipase deficiency with concomitant hypertriglyceridemia and associated disorders. Thus, through its profound effect on lipase activity, LMF1 emerges as an important candidate gene in hypertriglyceridemia. 相似文献

Specific interaction between the p53 cellular tumour antigen and major heat shock proteins 总被引:56,自引:0,他引:56
The protein p53 is capable of participating in neoplastic transformation and can form specific complexes with the large-T antigen of simian virus 40 (SV40). This interaction probably results in the stabilization of p53 (refs 7,8) and may contribute to SV40-mediated transformation. Several non-SV40-transformed cells also exhibit a stabilized p53 which is present in elevated levels. Recently, this stabilization was shown to coincide with the ability to precipitate a polypeptide (p68) of relative molecular mass (Mr) 68,000-70,000 by anti-p53 monoclonal antibodies. We now report that this co-precipitation indeed represents a specific complex between the two proteins; the complex sediments on a sucrose gradient as a relatively broad peak of 10-14S and can be dissociated in vitro. Furthermore, p68 is the HSP70 heat shock protein cognate, found in elevated levels in a p53-overproducing cell line. On heat-shock treatment of such overproducers, p53 also forms a complex with the related highly inducible HSP68. 相似文献
