Lysophospholipase-like 1 is a protein in humans that is encoded by the LYPLAL1 gene. [1] The protein is a α/β-hydrolase of uncharacterized metabolic function. Genome-wide association studies in humans have linked the gene to fat distribution[2] and waist-to-hip ratio.[3] The protein's enzymatic function is unclear. LYPLAL1 was reported to act as a triglyceride lipase in adipose tissue[4] and another study suggested that the protein may play a role in the depalmitoylation of calcium-activated potassium channels.[5] However, LYPLAL1 does not depalmitoylate the oncogene Ras[6] and a structural and enzymatic study concluded that LYPLAL1 is generally unable to act as a lipase and is instead an esterase that prefers short-chain substrates, such as acetyl groups.[7]

Relationship to acyl-protein thioesterases

Sequence conservation and structural homology suggest a close relationship of LYPLAL1 proteins to acyl-protein thioesterases, and, therefore, it has been suggested that LYPLAL1 might be the third human acyl-protein thioesterase.[8] However, the major structural difference between both protein families has been established in the hydrophobic substrate binding tunnel, which has been identified in human acyl-protein thioesterases 1[9] and 2,[10] as well as in Zea mays acyl-protein thioesterase 2.[11] In LYPLAL1, this tunnel is closed due to a different loop conformation, changing the enzyme's substrate specificity to short acyl chains.[7]

Model organisms

Model organisms have been used in the study of LYPLAL1 function. A conditional knockout mouse line called Lyplal1tm1a(KOMP)Wtsi was generated at the Wellcome Trust Sanger Institute.[12] Male and female animals underwent a standardized phenotypic screen[13] to determine the effects of deletion.[14][15][16][17] Additional screens performed: - In-depth immunological phenotyping[18]
