siRNA knock down of APT-1 and APT-2 in NRAS and BRAF mutant melanoma(a) and (b) melanoma cells with indicated mutations were transfected with APT-1 or APT-2 targeting siRNA pools (siAPT1, siAPT2) or their combination and compared to cells transfected with a non-targeting siRNA pool (concentration 100nM, incubation 72hrs). a. Immunoblots after APT-1, APT-2 or dual knock down. Densitometry values for APT-1 and APT-2 show the percentage of protein expression following siRNA treatment. No relevant changes in NRAS downstream effectors are seen following APT-1, APT-2 or dual knock down. b. Bar graphs depicting viable cells after APT-1, APT-2 or dual knock down. Analyses revealed no significant differences in cell viability in NRAS and BRAF mutant melanoma cells (incubation 72hrs, n > 3, error bars represent SD)

Biological function summary
APT-2 plays a critical role in maintaining phospholipid homeostasis contributing to membrane fluidity and signal transduction. It is involved in hydrolyzing lysophospholipids into lysoglycerophospholipids and free fatty acids. Not part of a complex APT-2 acts as an individual enzyme handling specific substrates in this context. Its activity regulates levels of lipid signaling molecules influencing cellular responses to environmental cues. APT-2 also contributes to energy storage via metabolism of lipid substrates linking its enzymatic activity to broader metabolic pathways.
Pathways
APT-2 holds significance in both metabolic and signaling pathways specifically the glycerophospholipid metabolism and lysophospholipid signaling pathways. It catalyzes reactions key to these pathways and intersects with proteins like phospholipase A2 and PLA2G6. Glycerophospholipid metabolism sees APT-2 breaking down molecules to sustain membrane integrity and cellular communication processes. In lysophospholipid signaling its activity regulates bioactive lipid levels which impact a variety of cellular signaling events showing a well-integrated role in cellular physiology.
