Synthesis pass · prose summary of the discoveries below

PLIN5 is a lipid droplet coat protein expressed in oxidative tissues that coordinates lipid storage, lipolysis, and mitochondrial fatty acid oxidation through regulated protein–protein interactions and signal-dependent trafficking. Under basal conditions, PLIN5 inhibits lipolysis by sequestering the ATGL co-activator CGI-58/Abhd5 on the lipid droplet surface; PKA-mediated phosphorylation at S155 releases CGI-58 to activate ATGL and simultaneously modulates lipid droplet–mitochondria contact site formation, with the phosphorylation-resistant S155A variant enhancing contacts and the phosphomimetic S155E variant reducing them (PMID:19064991, PMID:21148142, PMID:41872512). PLIN5 tethers lipid droplets to mitochondria through a C-terminal interaction with FATP4, channeling liberated fatty acids into β-oxidation, and upon lipolytic stimulation traffics monounsaturated fatty acids to the nucleus where they allosterically activate SIRT1 to drive PGC-1α/PPARα-dependent oxidative gene programs (PMID:37290445, PMID:31901447). PLIN5 expression is transcriptionally induced by PPARα and by IL-6/JAK/STAT3 signaling, and PLIN5 protein turnover is controlled by chaperone-mediated autophagy via LAMP2A (PMID:17130488, PMID:37108378, PMID:32339374).
