Overexpression of upstream of growth and differentiation factor 1 (uog1), a mammalian homolog of the yeast longevity assurance gene (LAG1), selectively induces the synthesis of stearoyl-containing sphingolipids in mammalian cells (Venkataraman, K., Riebeling, C., Bodennec, J., Riezman, H., Allegoo ... >> More
Overexpression of upstream of growth and differentiation factor 1 (uog1), a mammalian homolog of the yeast longevity assurance gene (LAG1), selectively induces the synthesis of stearoyl-containing sphingolipids in mammalian cells (Venkataraman, K., Riebeling, C., Bodennec, J., Riezman, H., Allegood, J. C., Sullards, M. C., Merrill, A. H. Jr., and Futerman, A. H. (2002) J. Biol. Chem. 277, 35642-35649). Gene data base analysis subsequently revealed a new subfamily of proteins containing the Lag1p motif, previously characterized as translocating chain-associating membrane (TRAM) protein homologs (TRH). We now report that two additional members of this family regulate the synthesis of (dihydro)ceramides with specific fatty acid(s) when overexpressed in human embryonic kidney 293T cells. TRH1 or TRH4-overexpression elevated [3H](dihydro)ceramide synthesis from l-[3-3H]serine and the increase was not blocked by the (dihydro)ceramide synthase inhibitor, fumonisin B1 (FB1). Analysis of sphingolipids by liquid chromatography-electrospray tandem mass spectrometry revealed that TRH4 overexpression elevated mainly palmitic acid-containing sphingolipids whereas TRH1 overexpression increased mainly stearic acid and arachidic acid, which in both cases were further elevated upon incubation with FB1. A similar fatty acid specificity was obtained upon analysis of (dihydro)ceramide synthase activity in vitro using various fatty acyl-CoA substrates, although in a FB1-sensitive manner. Moreover, in homogenates from TRH4-overexpressing cells, sphinganine, rather than sphingosine was the preferred substrate, whereas no preference was seen in homogenates from TRH1-overexpressing cells. These findings lend support to our hypothesis (Venkataraman, K., and Futerman, A. H. (2002) FEBS Lett. 528, 3-4) that Lag1p family members regulate (dihydro)ceramide synthases responsible for production of sphingolipids containing different fatty acids. << Less

This report identifies a novel gene encoding Fam57b (family with sequence similarity 57, member B) as a novel peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor γ (PPARγ)-responsive transmembrane gene that is related to obesity. The gene was identified based on an integrated bioinformatics analysis of the following three expression profiling data sets: adipocyte differentiation of mouse stromal cells (ST2 cells), adipose tissues from obesity mice, and siRNA-mediated knockdown of Pparγ using ST2 cells. Fam57b consists of three variants expressed from different promoters and contains a Tram-Lag1-CLN8 domain that is related to ceramide synthase. Reporter and ChIP assays showed that Fam57b variant 2 is a bona fide PPARγ target gene in ST2 cells. Fam57b was up-regulated during adipocyte differentiation, suggesting that FAM57B is involved in this process. Surprisingly, FAM57B overexpression inhibited adipogenesis, and siRNA-mediated knockdown promoted adipocyte differentiation. Analysis of the ceramide content by lipid assay found that ceramides were in fact augmented in FAM57B-overexpressing ST2 cells. We also confirmed that ceramide inhibits adipogenesis. Therefore, the aforementioned results of FAM57B overexpression and siRNA experiments are reconciled by ceramide synthesis. In summary, we present in vitro evidence showing that PPARγ regulates Fam57b transcription during the adipogenesis of ST2 cells. In addition, our results suggest that PPARγ activation contributes to the regulation of ceramide metabolism during adipogenesis via FAM57B. << Less
