Activating Compound

Activating Compound Comment Organism Structure
CGI-58 a ATGL activator protein Mus musculus
CGI-58 a ATGL activator protein, located on the surface of lipid droplets, requires interaction with perilipin A for activation of ATGL. After beta-adrenergic stimulation, CGI-58 disperses into the cytoplasm within min, which appears to be due to phosphorylation of perilipin A. Phosphorylation at Ser517 of perilipin A is mandatory for stimulated lipolysis Homo sapiens

additional information ATGL-/- mice are obese, exhibit impaired thermogenesis, oxidize more carbohydrate, and die prematurely due to cardiac dysfunction Homo sapiens
additional information ATGL-/- mice are obese, exhibit impaired thermogenesis, oxidize more carbohydrate, and die prematurely due to cardiac dysfunction. ATGL-/- mice developed heart failure due to myocardial fibrosis and a mechanical contraction defect, thereby reducing their life span. HSL-/- mice show defective beta-adrenergic stimulated lipolysis, protection against high-fat diet-induced obesity, and possible impairments in insulin secretion. Phenotypes, overview Mus musculus

General Information

General Information Comment Organism
physiological function adipose TG lipase, ATGL, is the predominant TG lipase in adipose tissue and an important regulator of triacyglycerol degradation in skeletal muscle Mus musculus
physiological function ATGL is a TG hydrolase in skeletal muscle that alters fat metabolism. Adipose TG lipase, ATGL, is the predominant TG lipase in adipose tissue and an important regulator of triacyglycerol degradation in skeletal muscle, overview. ATGL might also possess acylglycerol transacylase activity. Regulation of ATGL transacylation and lipase activities by undefined mechanisms can alter the metabolic balance within adipocytes, from anabolic (i.e. high transacylase activity) to catabolic (i.e. high lipase activity) situations, and thereby alter substrate delivery to peripheral tissues Homo sapiens
