Supplementary information

FSP27 also known as CIDEC (cell death-inducing DFFA-like effector C) is a protein involved in lipid droplet formation and is composed of about 238 amino acids with a mass of approximately 27 kDa. Researchers observe its expression predominantly in adipose tissue. As an important component FSP27 contributes to the regulation and accumulation of lipids within cells particularly in white adipose tissue where it facilitates triglyceride storage.
Biological function summary

FSP27 plays a critical role in lipid metabolism and energy homeostasis. It localizes on the surface of lipid droplets where it interacts with other structural proteins to maintain the stability and size of these lipid storage structures within adipocytes. While it does not form a traditional protein complex its function integrates with the overall architecture of lipid droplets to ensure efficient fat storage and energy balance in the body.

Pathways

FSP27 significantly impacts the regulation of lipid metabolism and energy homeostasis pathways. It associates with the perilipin family of proteins which also manage lipid droplet dynamics important to adipocyte function. The protein interacts with pathways like the insulin signaling pathway and the PPARγ signaling pathway important for maintaining metabolic homeostasis and regulating adipocyte differentiation. These interactions ensure proper energy storage and expenditure balance playing a vital role in metabolic health.

FSP27 has strong associations with obesity and type 2 diabetes. This protein's function in lipid storage and energy regulation links it with metabolic syndrome development. When dysregulated it may contribute to excess adipose tissue growth leading to obesity and impaired metabolic pathways advancing insulin resistance seen in type 2 diabetes. It interacts notably with proteins such as adiponectin which is known to influence glucose regulation and fatty acid breakdown further connecting FSP27 to metabolic disruptions.

Target data

Lipid transferase specifically expressed in white adipose tissue, which promotes unilocular lipid droplet formation by mediating lipid droplet fusion (PubMed : 18334488, PubMed : 19843876, PubMed : 20049731, PubMed : 23399566, PubMed : 30361435). Lipid droplet fusion promotes their enlargement, restricting lipolysis and favoring lipid storage (PubMed : 18334488, PubMed : 19843876, PubMed : 20049731, PubMed : 23399566). Localizes on the lipid droplet surface, at focal contact sites between lipid droplets, and mediates atypical lipid droplet fusion by undergoing liquid-liquid phase separation (LLPS) and promoting directional net neutral lipid transfer from the smaller to larger lipid droplets (PubMed : 18334488, PubMed : 19843876, PubMed : 20049731, PubMed : 23399566). The transfer direction may be driven by the internal pressure difference between the contacting lipid droplet pair (PubMed : 18334488, PubMed : 19843876, PubMed : 20049731, PubMed : 23399566). Its role in neutral lipid transfer and lipid droplet enlargement is activated by the interaction with PLIN1 (PubMed : 23399566). May also act as a CEBPB coactivator in the white adipose tissue to control the expression of a subset of CEBPB downstream target genes, including SOCS1, SOCS3, TGFB1, TGFBR1, ID2 and XDH (By similarity). When overexpressed in preadipocytes, induces apoptosis or increases cell susceptibility to apoptosis induced by serum deprivation or TGFB treatment (PubMed : 12429024).
