Post-translational regulation of lipogenesis via AMPK-dependent phosphorylation of insulin-induced gene

Post-translational regulation of lipogenesis via AMPK-dependent phosphorylation of insulin-induced gene

Insulin-related gene (Insig) negatively regulates hepatic fatty acid synthesis, a process involved in development of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). Here, the authors show that AMPK activation by metformin promotes Insig phosphorylation, stabilizing it and inhibiting lipogenic gene expres...
