Summary
Involved in several processes, including lipid droplet formation; lipid droplet transport along microtubule; and positive regulation of sequestering of triglyceride. Located in cytosol and lipid droplet. Is expressed in several structures, including adult brain; adult brain cell body rind; epithelium; fat body; and germline cell. Used to study metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease and obesity. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in familial partial lipodystrophy type 4 and obesity. Orthologous to several human genes including PLIN1 (perilipin 1) and PLIN2 (perilipin 2). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Jan 2025]
