Phospholipids play important roles in nuclear function as dynamic building blocks for the biogenesis of the
nuclear membrane, as well as signals by which the nucleus communicates with other organelles, and regulate
a variety of nuclear events. The mechanisms underlying the nuclear roles of phospholipids remain poorly understood. Lipins represent a family of phosphatidic acid (PA) phosphatases that are conserved from yeasts to
humans and perform essential functions in lipid metabolism. Several studies have identied key roles for lipins
and their regulators in nuclear envelope organization, gene expression and the maintenance of lipid homeostasis
in yeast and metazoans. This review discusses recent advances in understanding the roles of lipins in nuclear
structure and function. This article is part of a Special Issue entitled Phospholipids and Phospholipid Metabolism.

1. Introduction
The nucleus is traditionally the focus of studies of DNA and RNA
metabolism. It often appears detached from the world of lipid metabolism, commonly thought of as a cytoplasmic function. However, it
is now becoming increasingly clear that phospholipid metabolism is an
important player in nuclear physiology. A signicant number of phospholipid metabolic enzymes have been localized in the nucleus and
phospholipids or their water-soluble metabolites can regulate gene
expression, nucleocytoplasmic transport and nuclear organization.
These observations raise some fascinating questions with respect to nuclear biology. Are these enzymes active in the nucleus, and if so, what
are the molecular mechanisms by which their intranuclear lipid products
regulate nuclear functions? Since many of these enzymes are also active
on cytoplasmic membranes, is their function in the two compartments
somehow coordinated and if so, what are the underlying mechanisms?
And, given the emerging view of the nuclear envelope as a master

Fig. 1. Simplied scheme of the role of lipins in the de novo phospholipid biosynthetic
pathways. Glycerol 3-phosphate (G3P) is converted though a series of acylations with
fatty acids (FA, not depicted here) into phosphatidic acid (PA). PA is a key precursor
that is used, through its conversion to diacylglycerol (DAG), and in the presence of ethanolamine (Etn) and choline (Cho), for the synthesis of the major phospholipids phosphatidylethanolamine (PE) and phosphatidylcholine (PC), respectively (Kennedy
pathway). In the other major branch of the pathway, PA is converted to cytidine diphosphate diacylglycerol (CDP-DAG) which then gives rise to phosphatidylinositol
(PI). In yeast CDP-DAG is also used for the synthesis of PE and PC (shaded box). DAG
can be also acylated to generate triacylglycerol (TAG).
CDP-DAG (Fig. 1). The last step in this pathway, the production of PC by
the methylation of PE, is also conserved in mammalian hepatocytes. The
endoplasmic reticulum (ER) is the main organelle that produces the
bulk of structural phospholipids and sterols, which are then distributed
for the biogenesis of the other membrane-bound organelles via vesicular and non-vesicular pathways [7].
A surprising aspect of phospholipid metabolism is the presence of a
number of key enzymes in the nucleus [8,9]. One well studied case is
CTP:phosphocholine cytidylyltransferase (CCT), the enzyme that
catalyzes the rate-limiting step in the CDP-choline pathway for PC synthesis. CCT is ubiquitously expressed in mammalian tissues [10]. In
many cell types, including the evolutionarily distant budding yeast
(where it is known as Pct1p), CCT localizes in the nucleus via a classic
nuclear localization signal (NLS) [1113] but is known to translocate to
the cytoplasm when there is increased demand for PC production
[14,15]. Given that the enzymes catalyzing the nal step in PC synthesis,
after the CCT step, localize to the ER and Golgi [16,17], it is possible
that nuclear CCT functions as a reserve for a rapid response to cellular
PC needs. However, puried nuclei can support synthesis of PC [18], so
nuclear CCT may also have a role in the production of a phospholipid
pool in the nucleus with a structural or signaling function.
In addition to CCT, the nucleus contains an extensive panoply of
lipid kinases and phosphatases. Phosphorylation of the PI polar inositol
headgroup through the action of PI or phosphoinositide (PIP) kinases at
a single or multiple hydroxyl groups, respectively, generates seven
Fig. 2. Domain and motif organization of the yeast (S. cerevisiae) Pah1p and mammalian (M. musculus) lipin 1. All members of the lipin family contain a conserved
amino-terminal domain (N-LIP) of an unknown function and a C-terminal catalytic domain that contains a HAD-like phosphatase motif (DxDxT). The yeast enzyme contains
an amino-terminal amphipathic helix mediating its membrane recruitment, a predicted bipartite NLS (but with no published evidence yet that it directs nuclear transport of
Pah1p) and a short carboxy-terminal acidic stretch of unknown function. Lipin 1 contains a polybasic sequence (PBs) with a dual function as a NLS and PA binding motif. A
serine rich domain (SRD) mediates interaction of lipin 1 with 14-3-3 proteins and is
responsible for its cytosolic retention. Within its C-LIP domain, lipin 1 contains a
LxxIL transcriptional co-activator motif that is required for its interaction and activation with transcription factors. The multiple phosphorylation sites on both yeast
Pah1p and mammalian lipins are not shown here.

translocation of lipin relates to cellular PA levels and phospholipid biosynthesis is currently not known.
The complexity of the signals that govern nucleocytoplasmic transport of lipins is highlighted by the distribution of lipin 1 isoforms:
although lipin 1 and lipin 1 contain the same NLS, the former is predominantly nuclear while the latter is predominantly cytoplasmic in a
number of different cell lines [32,56,62,63]. In primary mouse embryonic broblasts (MEFs), these distinct localizations correlate with distinct
functions of the two isoforms: lipin 1 is required for the induction of
adipogenic transcription factors (adipocyte differentiation) while lipin
1 is required for the induction of lipogenic genes (lipid biosynthesis)
[32]. As lipins are amphitropic proteins that partition between a soluble
and a membrane-bound pool that is active in PA dephosphorylation, an
important determinant of nucleocytoplasmic transport could be their
membrane occupancy. Consistent with this hypothesis, deletion of the
lipin 1 NLS impairs both its nuclear import and the membrane association, suggesting that the same sequence may be involved in these two
processes [56]. Both NLS's and PA binding motifs consist of short stretches
of basic residues [64]. Moreover, the NLS of lipin 1 was shown to function also as a PA binding motif suggesting that interaction with PA may
antagonize nuclear import [58]. A link between PA binding and nuclear
import has been made previously in yeast where the PA binding sequences of Opi1p and Spo20p, two proteins moving between the nucleus
and the cytoplasm in response to changes in PA levels, overlap with their
NLS's [65,66]. How a protein, once in the nucleus, can sense changing PA
levels on cytoplasmic membranes, is not clear but continuous shuttling
between the two compartments with the protein being trapped in the
latter when PA levels reach a threshold may provide a mechanism.
Post-translational modications inuence the nucleocytoplasmic
distribution of lipin 1. Sumoylation of lipin 1 in neuronal cells has
been shown to promote nuclear import of lipin 1 [62]. In addition,
studies have highlighted a key role for phosphorylation in the
nucleocytoplasmic transport of lipin 1. In mouse adipocytes, insulindependent phosphorylation of lipin 1 on multiple sites correlates with
an increase of its soluble pool [45] and inhibits its nuclear import
through interactions with 14-3-3 proteins [57]. More recently it was
demonstrated that mTORC1-dependent phosphorylation of lipin 1
inhibits its nuclear import and that a 17-site phosphorylation decient
lipin 1 accumulates in the nucleus [47]. Consistent with this, ectopic
expression of the mammalian lipin 1 phosphatase complex CTDNEP1NEP1R1 led to lipin 1 nuclear accumulation [51]. Given that dephosphorylation of lipins promotes their membrane binding as well, these
observations raise again the possibility of a link between ER membrane
recruitment and nuclear import of lipins. Dephosphorylation and
recruitment at the inner nuclear membrane could be also necessary
for their intranuclear retention, if lipins are active as PA phosphatases
in the nucleus as well (see below). Indeed, two studies have reported
that CTDNEP1 localizes to the inner nuclear membrane [50,67].
4. Lipins and transcriptional regulation of lipid metabolic genes
An intriguing property of lipins that distinguishes them from many
other lipid biosynthetic enzymes is their functional duality: in addition
to their role in lipid homeostasis through the control of PA and DAG
levels, lipins also control transcription of genes encoding lipid metabolic
enzymes. Gene regulation by lipins can be exerted through three, not
mutually exclusive, mechanisms: (a) directly, mediated by the interaction of lipins with the transcriptional machinery (b) indirectly, mediated
by the signaling function of lipin-dependent PA pools and (c) indirectly,
mediated by lipin-dependent structural remodeling of the nuclear envelope as described in Section 5.2.
4.1. Lipins as transcription co-factors
A direct role for lipins as transcriptional regulators was rst established in mouse hepatocytes where lipin 1 was shown to interact
578
novo phosholipid synthesis [84] and inhibits nuclear membrane expansion during mitosis [49]. The underlying mechanisms by which Pah1p
activity regulates this process remain to be determined.
Metazoan cells display some key differences from yeast with respect
to nuclear organization: their inner nuclear membrane, that faces the nucleoplasm, is coated by a meshwork of intermediate laments, the nuclear
lamina [87]. In addition, metazoan cells undergo nuclear envelope breakdown (NEBD) during their open mitosis, an event that is accompanied
by nuclear lamina and nuclear pore disassembly, and allows chromosome
separation within the cytoplasm [87]. In Drosophila and Caenorhabditis
elegans, lipin is required for proper nuclear structure [5355]. In addition,
downregulation of lipin 1 in C. elegans causes defects in lamina depolymerization, NEBD and chromosome segregation as well as altered ER
membrane organization with the appearance of large membrane sheets
[54,55]. Given that ER membrane structure can inuence nuclear envelope dynamics [88], the role of lipin in NEBD may be an indirect consequence of its function on ER organization [55]. Alternatively, as the lipin
1-mediated defects in NEBD are signicantly rescued by co-depletion of
lamins without affecting the ER defects, the functions of lipin 1 in NEBD
may be distinct from those in peripheral ER [54]. Consistent with this, a
very recent study reported a role for lipins in promoting mitotic lamin disassembly in cultured mammalian cells [89].
5.2. Lipin-mediated nuclear remodeling and gene regulation
Recently, a role for nuclear lipin 1 linking nuclear envelope remodeling and gene regulation was reported in mammals [47]. mTORC1 is a
nutrient-responsive kinase that promotes growth by positively regulating
many anabolic processes including protein and lipid synthesis, the latter
in part through SREBP [90]. The SREBP transcription factors are normally
present as inactive ER-bound precursors that are cleaved in response to
sterol depletion (SREBP-2) or insulin (SREBP-1) and translocate in the nucleus where they induce expression of genes involved in lipid biosynthesis [91]. Inhibition of mTORC1 causes translocation of dephosphorylated
lipin 1 in the nucleus concurrent with an increase in nuclear eccentricity,
dened as the ratio of horizontal to vertical axes of the nucleus [47]. Interestingly, this structural reorganization of the nucleus requires the catalytic
activity of lipin 1 inside the nucleus [47] and is therefore likely depending
on DAG and/or PA in the inner nuclear membrane. In addition, the lipin
1-dependent nuclear remodeling coincided with a downregulation of
the protein pool of SREBP in the nucleus, by a yet unknown mechanism,
and the inhibition of the expression of SREBP targets [47]. Lipin 1 itself
is an SREBP transcriptional target [92], suggesting the operation of a feedback loop that could turn lipin 1 levels off. How direct is the involvement
of nuclear envelope remodeling in the transcriptional response remains
to be determined.
In budding yeast, a role of the nuclear periphery in the regulation of
lipid homeostasis has been also reported, where repositioning of the
PA-regulated INO1 gene to the nuclear envelope upon inositol depletion
is important for its derepression [93]. Although the underlying mechanisms are most likely different, these examples highlight how changes
in nuclear architecture can inuence cellular lipid homeostasis.
While the molecular details of how lipins remodel nuclear architecture are not known, one could envision both signaling and structural mechanisms involved. Given the evidence for multiple DAG
pools in the nucleus, one of which depends on the nuclear PI-PLC
pathway [94], lipin 1-derived nuclear DAG may have a function in nuclear envelope remodeling, via its effector PKC, which is known to
translocate in the nucleus in response to DAG [9597] and mediate
phosphorylation and lamin disassembly [98,99]. Indeed, lipins promote lamin disassembly [89] and therefore their temporal and spatial
regulation in the nucleus may have important implications in nuclear
envelope structure.
Lipins may also regulate nuclear structure through the effects of
the conical shaped PA and DAG that are known to promote membrane deformation [100]. Curvature and tubulation of the inner
