Abstract
Prohibitin (PHB-1) is a highly conserved protein involved in mitochondrial biogenesis and function. It is secreted in lipid droplets from adipocytes and is present in the circulation. In adipose tissue it functions as a membrane receptor and can target binding partners to the mitochondria. Here we report that PHB-1 has a hitherto undescribed role as an inhibitor of pyruvate carboxylase (PC). As a consequence, it can modulate insulin-stimulated glucose and fatty acid oxidation. It had no effect on insulin-stimulated 2-deoxglucose uptake by isolated adipocytes but inhibited insulin-stimulated oxidation of [14C]glucose with a half-maximal concentration of approximately 4 nM. It also inhibited oleic acid oxidation in glucose-depleted adipocytes via depletion of oxaloacetate. In vitro experiments using broken-cell assays confirmed that PHB-1 inhibited PC. MALDI-TOF analysis of proteins identified by cross-linking of PHB-1 to adipocyte membranes indicated that PHB-1 is closely associated with PC and EH domain 2 (EHD2). On the basis of these data, we propose that PHB-1 is recycled between the extracellular space and the mitochondria by a mechanism involving lipid rafts and EHD2 and can modulate mitochondrial fuel metabolism by inhibition of PC.Keywords
