Function | Palmitoyl thioesterase specifically expressed in the endoplasmic reticulum of neurons. Modulates the trafficking of the glutamate receptor, AMPAR, to plasma membrane through depalmitoylation of GRIA1 (PubMed:30135643). Also regulates AMPR trafficking through the regulation of SACM1L phosphatidylinositol-3-phosphatase activity by interaction in a malonyl-CoA dependent manner (By similarity). Binds malonyl-CoA and couples malonyl-CoA to ceramide levels, necessary for proper spine maturation and contributing to systemic energy homeostasis and appetite control (PubMed:16651524). Binds to palmitoyl-CoA, but does not have carnitine palmitoyltransferase 1 catalytic activity or at very low levels (PubMed:25751282, PubMed:30135643). |
Cellular Location | Cell projection, dendrite. Cell projection, axon. Endoplasmic reticulum membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein. Note=Localized in the soma and dendritic and axonal projections. |
Tissue Location | Expressed predominantly in brain and testis. Expressed in motor neurons. |

Background
The Cpt1 family of proteins are outer mitochondrial membrane proteins that regulate the entry into, and oxidation of fatty acids by, mitochondria. Malonyl-CoA, an intermediate in fatty acid synthesis, has been implicated as a regulatory component of the energy sensing system that feeds into hypothalmic neurons to impart energy homeostasis. Malonyl-CoA levels in the hypothalamus are dynamically regulated by fasting and feeding, altering subsequent feeding behaviour. Cpt1c, the brain-specific carnitine O-palmitoyltransferase 1, is thought to relay information about malonyl-CoA levels in hypothalamic neurons that express orexigenic and anorexigenic neuropeptides that regulate food intake and peripheral energy expenditure. Unlike other Cpt1 proteins, Cpt1c binds Malonyl-CoA but does not catalyse the transfer of the malonyl group from CoA to carnitine.
