Hormone-Sensitive Lipase from 3dnm. Alpha helices and beta sheets are shown in red and yellow, respectively.

Hormone-sensitive lipases (HSL) represent a class of esterases within the α/β hydrolase family. Like other lipases, HSL catalyzes the cleavage of ester bonds, releasing fatty acid molecules. The activation and mobilization of hormone-sensitive lipase can be triggered by various catecholamines and inhibited by insulin.[1][2] Catecholamines, such as epinephrine, are rapidly spread throughout the body during times of energy mobilization, like in the fight or flight response. Conversely, insulin triggers glucose uptake, requiring the storage of energy, opposing HSL's function. HSL is clinically relevant, because the mobilization of or inability to mobilize fats in cells is directly related to fat accumulation seen in artherosclerosisand obesity.[3] Such diseases are characterized by an accumulation of fats and researchers are investigating whether HSL's activity plays a role or not.[2] Investigation of HSL's structure and function could provide a better clinical understanding of these diseases.[3]

Activation of HSLActivation of HSL

Briefly, HSL is stimulated by the binding of catecholamines to β-adrenergic receptors. β-adrenergic receptors coupled with adenylate cyclase (AC) then stimulate G-proteins to increase the levels of cystolic cAMP. Elevated levels of cAMP leads to an activation protein kinase A (PKA) leading to phosphorylation of serine residues on HSL activating and translocating HSL to lipid droplets for lipolysis. Conversely, insulin signaling decreases cystolic cAMP levels, resulting in a decreased HSL mobilization.[1]

are generally well-conserved across domains, including prokaryotes, showing 29, 26, and 22% residue overlap in Alicyclobacillus acidocaldarius, Archaeoglobus fulgidus, and Bacillus subtilis, respectively.[4] HSL is composed of two main structural domains, consisting of a slightly variable N-terminus (shown in blue in the ) that is thought to contribute to numerous factors including activity, specificity, regioselectivity, thermophilicity, and thermostability.[4] Research speculates that the N-terminal domain, consisting of about 300 residues, mediates protein-protein interactions, and possibly subsequent lipid binding.[3] The second domain of HSL is the C-terminal catalytic domain (colors other than blue), which contains serine residue phosphorylation sites as well as the catalytic triad, viewed with ligand β-mercaptoethanol, a charge relay network that is characteristic of many hydrolases, such as chymotrypsin.[3] With respect to sequence conservation across species, it has been shown that the catalytic domain, including the triad, is conserved across domains, but the domain containing the N-terminus shows little conservation.[4] HSL has a that is approximately 16Å deep. Kinetic studies with substrates of varying lengths suggest that HSL primarily hydrolyzes shorter chained molecules.[4]

Catalytic triad

The catalytic triad with β-mercaptoethanol toward the middle of HSL. The catalytic triad is composed of residues . The Ser157 residue sits at a site deemed the "nucleophilic elbow," that models an approximate torsion of Φ = 60° and Ψ =-120°.[4] This nucleophilic elbow is stabilized by a hydrogen bond between the proximal nitrogen and oxygen atoms of His281 and Glu251, respectively. This model also shows the strong nucleophilic character of Ser157, portraying the interaction and subsequent covalent bonding (not shown) to . Return to default view, .[3]

Inhibition of hormone-sensitive lipase

Hormone-sensitive lipase can be inhibited by phenylmethylsufonyl flouride (PMSF) covalently bound to the . PMSF is a general, covalent inhibitor of serine hydrolases, which has been co-crystallized bound to hormone-sensitive lipases. The experiments performed to test this inhibition used different lipases obtained from Bacillus coagulans as well as lipases from different areas of the human body.[5] PMSF inhibits hydrolase by binding to the catalytic serine residue of the serine protease active site which disrupts the nucleophilic activity of the catalytic serine. The sulfur of PMSF binds to the oxygen of the hydroxyl group on the serine residue to form this covalent bond. This inhibitor will only bind to the active site of the catalytic serine because of its participation in the charge relay of the catalytic triad. This hyper activity, indicated by increased temperature (shown in red) around the active site , allows the sulfonyl group of PMSF to covalently bind to the catalytic serine residue to disrupt its activity.[6] Because of this catalytic serine residue specificity, PMSF does not inhibit all kinds of lipases, such as pancreatic lipase and lipolase.Cite error: Closing </ref> missing for <ref> tag induces only a minor conformational change from the .[6]

Increased activity of HSL is also linked to disorders such as atherosclerosis, obesity, and type 2 diabetes. High concentration of free fatty acids (FFA) in skeletal muscles has been reported in many cases of obesity and type 2 diabetes. Increased inhibition of HSL through synthetic inhibitors could be a possible route for decreasing FFA concentration.[7]
