Previously, loss of ARL15 was shown to reduce insulin secretion in a human \u03b2-cell line and loss-of-function mutations are found in some lipodystrophy patients. We set out to understand the role of ARL15 in adipogenesis and showed that endogenous ARL15 palmitoylated and localised in the Golgi of mouse liver. Adipocyte overexpression of palmitoylation-deficient ARL15 resulted in redistribution to the cytoplasm and a mild reduction in expression of some adipogenesis-related genes. Further investigation of the localisation of ARL15 during differentiation of a human white adipocyte cell line showed that ARL15 was predominantly co-localised with a marker of the cis face of Golgi at the preadipocyte stage and then translocated to other Golgi compartments after differentiation was induced. Finally, co-immunoprecipitation and mass spectrometry identified potential interacting partners of ARL15, including the ER-localised protein ARL6IP5. Together, these results suggest a palmitoylation dependent trafficking-related role of ARL15 as a regulator of adipocyte differentiation via ARL6IP5 interaction.<\/jats:p>\n               <jats:p>This article has an associated First Person interview with the first author of the paper.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1242\/bio.058420","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2021,11,15]],"date-time":"2021-11-15T10:32:21Z","timestamp":1636972341000},"source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":19,"title":["Palmitoylated small GTPase ARL15 is translocated within Golgi network during adipogenesis"],"prefix":"10.1242","volume":"10","author":[{"given":"Yixing","family":"Wu","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Mammalian Genetics Unit, MRC Harwell Institute, Harwell Oxford, Oxfordshire, OX11 0RD, UK"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Ying","family":"Bai","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Mammalian Genetics Unit, MRC Harwell Institute, Harwell Oxford, Oxfordshire, OX11 0RD, UK"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"David G.","family":"McEwan","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Division of Cell Signalling & Immunology, School of Life Sciences, University of Dundee, Dundee, DD1 5EH, UK"},{"name":"Tumour Cell Death Laboratory, Cancer Research UK Beatson Institute, Garscube Estate, Switchback Road, Glasgow, G61 1BD, UK"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Liz","family":"Bentley","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Mammalian Genetics Unit, MRC Harwell Institute, Harwell Oxford, Oxfordshire, OX11 0RD, UK"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Dimitra","family":"Aravani","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Mammalian Genetics Unit, MRC Harwell Institute, Harwell Oxford, Oxfordshire, OX11 0RD, UK"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-7170-5014","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Roger D.","family":"Cox","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Mammalian Genetics Unit, MRC Harwell Institute, Harwell Oxford, Oxfordshire, OX11 0RD, UK"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"237","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2021,12,13]]},"reference":[{"key":"2021121311252123200_BIO058420C1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"2981","DOI":"10.1016\/j.bbamem.2011.07.009","article-title":"Protein palmitoylation and subcellular trafficking","volume":"1808","author":"Aicart-Ramos","year":"2011","journal-title":"Biochim.
