Acrp30 (adipocyte complement-related protein of 30 kD), also known as AdipoQ, APM1, Adiponectin, Gelatin binding protein 28 kD/GBP28 or adipocyte most abundant gene transcript) was identified as a novel adipocyte-specific synthesized and secreted protein with structural resemblance to complement factor C1q.
Like adipsin, Acrp30 secretion is induced ~10-fold during adipocyte differentiation.
Plasma levels are reduced in obese humans, and low levels are associated with insulin-resistance.
Acrp30 (mouse 247 aa, rat human 244 aa; chromosome 3q27) consists of a predicted NT-signal sequence 91-14 aa), followed by a 27-aa unique region, and then by 22 perfect Gly-X-Pro or Gly-X-X collagen like repeats, and a globular segment at the C-terminus.
Acrp30 is proteolytically cleaved at 104 aa to generate the globular Acrp30 (gAcrp30).
Administration of gAcrp30 into mice fed a diet high in fat and sugar caused substantial weight loss.
