High-throughput screening identifies small molecule inhibitors of thioesterase superfamily member 1: Implications for the management of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease

C. S. Krumm, L. Ramos-Espiritu, R. S. Landzberg, C. Adura, X. Liu, M. Acuna, Y. Xie, X. Xu, M. C. Tillman, Y. Li, F. Glickman, E. A. Ortlund, J. D. Ginn, D. E. Cohen

This study identifies small molecule inhibitors of Them1, showing they enhance fatty acid oxidation and reduce glucose production in liver cells, suggesting therapeutic potential for NAFLD.

Allosteric regulation of Thioesterase Superfamily Member 1 by free fatty acids and lysophosphatidylcholine

M. C. Tillman, N. Imai, Y. Li, M. Khadka, C. D. Okafor, P. Juneja, A. Adhiyaman, S. J. Hagen, D. E. Cohen, E. A. Ortlund

This study identifies the StarD domain of Them1 as a lipid sensor that allosterically regulates its activity and localization in response to fatty acids and lysophosphatidylcholine.

Thioesterase Superfamily Member 1 Undergoes Stimulus-coupled Reorganization to Regulate Metabolism

Y. Li, N. Imai, S. Goyal, H. T. Nicholls, T. I. Krisko, M. Baqai, L.-H. Ang, M. C. Tillman, E. A. Ortlund, D. E. Cohen, S. J. Hagen

This paper shows that Them1 undergoes conformational changes in response to stimuli, forming biomolecular condensates that regulate fatty acid oxidation and thermogenesis.
