Gene Information from Publications

Publication Link Summary of findings
18155601 Berardinelli-Seip syndrome is a congenital form of generalized lipodystrophy, transmitted as an autosomal recessive trait. It is well documented in medicine and skin. It is a rare disorder caused by mutations of AGPAT2 gene or BSCL2 gene.
14602785 Congenital lipodystrophy patients with Seipin mutations have a more severe lack of body fat, which affects both metabolically active and mechanical adipose tissue, compared with patients with mutations in the AGPAT2 gene.
11967537 AGPAT2 is mutated in congenital generalized lipodystrophy linked to chromosome 9q34.
15629135 reduction in AGPAT2 enzymatic activity underlies the loss of adipose tissue in congenital generalized lipodystrophy
16435205 mutations in AGPAT2 or Seipin may have roles in Berardinelli-Seip congenital lipodystrophy
15181077 mutations in AGPAT2 and Gng3lg are approximately equally represented in congenital generalized lipodystrophy
15841084 Our study shows that LPAAT-beta is upregulated in ovarian cancer and is more prevalent in poorly differentiated tumours
