MeSH Heading: Perilipin-4
Tree Number(s): D12.776.157.464.500.906
Unique ID: D000071229
RDF Unique Identifier: http://id.nlm.nih.gov/mesh/D000071229
Scope Note: A perilipin protein characterized by an extensive 11-mer repeat region, which forms five adjacent alpha-helices. It is expressed primarily in WHITE ADIPOSE TISSUE and differentiating ADIPOCYTES, as well as skeletal muscle and heart. It is soluble in the cytoplasm but re-localizes to the surface of LIPID DROPLETS under high lipid conditions.
