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] Structural comparisons have suggested that LYPLAL1 might be a protein deacetylase, but this has not been experimentally tested.[8]
Relationship to acyl-protein thioesterases
[edit]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.[9] 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[10] and 2,[11] as well as in Zea mays acyl-protein thioesterase 2.[12] In LYPLAL1, this tunnel is closed due to a different loop conformation, changing the enzyme's substrate specificity to short acyl chains.[7]
