Comments

FUNCTION: Modulator of adipocyte lipid metabolism, it coats lipid storage droplets to protect them to be broken down by hormone-sensitive lipase (HSL). Its absence may result in leanness.
SUBUNIT: Interacts with ABHD5 (By similarity).
SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Lipid droplet (By similarity). Note=Lipid droplet surface-associated (By similarity).
TISSUE SPECIFICITY: Adipocytes.
PTM: Major cAMP-dependent protein kinase-substrate in adipocytes, also dephosphorylated by PP1. When phosphorylated, may be maximally sensitive to HSL and when unphosphorylated, may play a role in the inhibition of lipolysis, by acting as a barrier in lipid droplet (By similarity).
SIMILARITY: Belongs to the perilipin family.
