Role of Seipin in Human Diseases and Experimental Animal Models
Seipin, a protein encoded by the Berardinelli-Seip congenital lipodystrophy type 2 (<i>BSCL2</i>) gene, is famous for its key role in the biogenesis of lipid droplets and type 2 congenital generalised lipodystrophy (CGL2). <i>BSCL2</i> gene mutations result in genetic disease...
