Caveolin-2 palmitoylation turnover facilitates insulin receptor substrate-1-directed lipid metabolism by insulin receptor tyrosine kinase

초록

Here, we show that insulin induces palmitoylation turnover of Caveolin-2 (Cav-2) in adipocytes. Acyl protein thioesterases-1 (APT1) catalyzes Cav-2 depalmitoylation, and zinc finger DHHC domain-containing protein palmitoyltransferase 21 (ZDHHC21) repalmitoylation of the depalmitoylated Cav-2 for the turnover, thereby controlling insulin receptor (IR)-Cav-2-insulin receptor substrate-1 (IRS-1)-Akt-driven signaling. Insulin-induced palmitoylation turnover of Cav-2 facilitated glucose uptake and fat storage through induction of lipogenic genes. Cav-2-, APT1-, and ZDHHC21-deficient adipocytes, however, showed increased induction of lipolytic genes and glycerol release. In addition, white adipose tissues from insulin sensitive and resistant obese patients exhibited augmented expression of LYPLA1 (APT1) and ZDHHC20 (ZDHHC20). Our study identifies the specific enzymes regulating Cav-2 palmitoylation turnover, and reveals a new mechanism by which insulin-mediated lipid metabolism is controlled in adipocytes. © 2024 Elsevier B.V.
