We recently isolated a novel co-activator of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor γ, helicase with zinc finger 2 (HELZ2). HELZ2 null mice were resistant to diet-induced obesity and NAFFL/NASH, and HELZ2 was phosphorylated at tyrosine residues. In order to find a factor related to HELZ2, we analyzed products co-immunoprecipitated with phosphorylated HELZ2 by mass spectrometry analyses. We identified proline- and glutamine-rich (SFPQ) as a protein associating with tyrosine-phosphorylated HELZ2. The knockdown of SFPQ in 3T3-L1 cells downregulated mRNA levels of transcription factors includingKrox20,Cebpβ, andCebpδ: key factors for early-stage adipocyte differentiation. In addition, knockdown of SFPQ inhibited 3T3-L1 cell differentiation to mature adipocytes. These findings demonstrated that SFPQ associating with HELZ2 is an important novel transcriptional regulator of adipocyte differentiation.
