Adipose triglyceride lipase, also known as patatin-like phospholipase domain-containing protein 2 and ATGL, is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the PNPLA2 gene.[5][6][7] ATGL catalyses the first reaction of lipolysis,[8] where triacylglycerols are hydrolysed to diacylglycerols.[9]

Properties

ATGL has very high substrate specificity for triacylglycerols.[10] It contains a catalytic dyad using serine-aspartic acid.[9]

Function

ATGL catalyses the first reaction of lipolysis.[8] It hydrolysis triacylglycerols to diacylglycerols[9] by attacking the fatty acid attached to carbon-3 of glycerol.

ATGL acts as a control mechanism of lipolysis, as variations in diacylglycerol concentration impact enzymes in later stages of lipolysis.[11]

Clinical significance

Defects in ATGL can cause problems in lipolysis, leading to neutral lipid storage disease.[12] As triacylglycerols are not hydrolysed to diacylglycerols, there is a build-up of triacylglycerol droplets in granulocytes.[12]

ATGL is regulated by insulin, and is similar to structure with adiponutrin, a protein that is regulated by nutrition. When there is a lack of insulin, there is an increased expression of the ATGL protein. Because adipose tissue triglyceride is a major form of energy storage, the study of how ATGL regulation and dysregulation can lead to potential problems will increase understanding of the pathophysiology behind metabolic disorders.[13] ATGL is also the key enzyme that would be able to maintain a balance between mobilization and lipid storage. Lipolytic breakdown performed by ATGL would impact regulatory functions including but not limited to cell death, growth, signaling, metabolism, and gene expression.[14][15]
