FAMILY

cell death-inducing DFF45-like effector (CIDE) protein family

CATEGORY

regulatory

SUBCELLULAR LOCALIZATION	intracellular
	intracellular,cytoplasm,organelle,endoplasmic reticulum
	intracellular,cytoplasm,organelle,Golgi
	intracellular,cytoplasm,cytosolic
text	localization to endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and lipid droplets (LD), and also localized to the Golgi apparatus

basic FUNCTION	cell death-inducing DFFA-like effector B
	putatively involved in apoptotic DNA fragmentation
	inducing cell death in a caspase-dependent manner through cytochrome c release from mitochondria
	important regulator in the development of obesity and diabetes by controlling fatty acid synthesis and VLDL secretion in hepatocytes
	is a novel regulator in controlling cholesterol homeostasis in the liver
	present in pancreatic beta-cells and involved in palmitate induced beta-cell apoptosis
	CIDEB and PLIN2 play opposing roles in controlling VLDL lipidation and hepatic lipid homeostasis
	direct requirement of CIDEB in VTV (very low density lipoprotein (VLDL) transport vesicle) formation
	potential role in VLDL transport from the ER to the Golgi
	mediates lipid droplet (LD) fusion, as well as very-low-density lipoprotein (VLDL) maturation
	play a critical role in maintaining hepatic lipid homeostasis by promoting the lipidation and maturation of VLDL particles
	plays an important role in controlling intestinal chylomicron lipidation

INTERACTION

DNA

RNA

small molecule

protein	DFFA/DFFB complex
	PPARGC1A plays an important role in partitioning cytoplasmic Triglycerdes toward the VLDL secretory compartments and promoting VLDL secretion via transcriptional induction of CIDEB
	interacts with APOB100 in the ER, whereas it does not interact with albumin, which is excluded from the VTV
	CIDEB is an essential cofactor for hepatitis C virus (HCV) entry into hepatocytes
