The Endoplasmic Reticulum Enzyme DGAT2 Is Found in Mitochondria-associated Membranes and Has a Mitochondrial Targeting Signal That Promotes Its Association with Mitochondria
Open accessAbstract
The synthesis and storage of neutral lipids in lipid droplets is a fundamental property of eukaryotic cells, but the spatial organization of this process is poorly understood. Here we examined the intracellular localization of acyl-CoA:diacylglycerol acyltransferase 2 (DGAT2), an enzyme that catalyzes the final step of triacylglycerol (TG) synthesis in eukaryotes. We found that DGAT2 expressed in cultured cells localizes to the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) under basal conditions. After providing oleate to drive TG synthesis, DGAT2 also localized to near the surface of lipid droplets, where it co-localized with mitochondria. Biochemical fractionation revealed that DGAT2 is present in mitochondria-associated membranes, specialized domains of the ER that are highly enriched in lipid synthetic enzymes and interact tightly with mitochondria. The interaction of DGAT2 with mitochondria depended on 67 N-terminal amino acids of DGAT2, which are not conserved in family members that have different catalytic functions. This targeting signal was sufficient to localize a red fluorescent protein to mitochondria. A highly conserved, positively charged, putative mitochondrial targeting signal was identified in murine DGAT2 between amino acids 61 and 66. Thus, DGAT2, an ER-resident transmembrane domain-containing enzyme, is also found in mitochondria-associated membranes, where its N terminus may promote its association with mitochondria.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
