LIPIN1

LPIN1 (Lipin 1) is a protein coding gene. Diseases associated with LPIN1 include Myoglobinuria, Acute Recurrent, Autosomal Recessive and Genetic Recurrent Myoglobinuria. Among its related pathways are Cell Cycle, Mitotic and Adipogenesis.

Full Name

Lipin 1

Function

Acts as a magnesium-dependent phosphatidate phosphatase enzyme which catalyzes the conversion of phosphatidic acid to diacylglycerol during triglyceride, phosphatidylcholine and phosphatidylethanolamine biosynthesis and therefore controls the metabolism of fatty acids at different levels (PubMed:20231281, PubMed:29765047).
Is involved in adipocyte differentiation (By similarity).
Acts also as nuclear transcriptional coactivator for PPARGC1A/PPARA regulatory pathway to modulate lipid metabolism gene expression (By similarity).
Recruited at the mitochondrion outer membrane and is involved in mitochondrial fission by converting phosphatidic acid to diacylglycerol (By similarity).

Cellular Location

Cytoplasm, cytosol
Endoplasmic reticulum membrane
Nucleus membrane
Translocates from the cytosol to the endoplasmic reticulum following acetylation by KAT5.

Involvement in disease

Myoglobinuria, acute recurrent, autosomal recessive (ARARM):
Recurrent myoglobinuria is characterized by recurrent attacks of rhabdomyolysis (necrosis or disintegration of skeletal muscle) associated with muscle pain and weakness and followed by excretion of myoglobin in the urine. Renal failure may occasionally occur.

PTM

Phosphorylated at multiple sites in response to insulin. Phosphorylation is controlled by the mTOR signaling pathway. Phosphorylation is decreased by epinephrine. Phosphorylation may not directly affect the catalytic activity but may regulate the localization. Dephosphorylated by the CTDNEP1-CNEP1R1 complex (By similarity).
Acetylation at Lys-425 and Lys-595 by KAT5 in response to fatty acids promotes translocation to the endoplasmic reticulum and synthesis of diacylglycerol.
Sumoylated.
