PAT family proteins pervade lipid droplet cores

The PAT family proteins, named after perilipin, adipophilin, and the tail-interacting protein of 47 kDa (TIP47), are implicated in intracellular lipid metabolism. They associate with lipid droplets, but how is completely unclear. From immunofluorescence studies, they are reported to be restricted to...
