Abstract:
Tyrosine-3-monooxy genase/tryptophane-5-monooxy-genase activator protein ( 14-3-3 protein ) is a family of highly conservative and widely expressed acidic polypeptides in all eukaryotic cells. The 14-3-3 protein family consists of adaptors and scaffolds that participates in many cellular processes, such as apoptosis and metabolism. Recent studies have found that 14-3-3 protein is associated with many proteins related to lipid metabolism. It could be exploited for therapy of lipid metabolism disorders. This paper briefly describes the role of the 14-3-3 protein in the lipid metabolism and its related diseases.
