Abstract
- Abstract Background Excessive backfat deposition lowering carcass grade is a major concern in the pig industry, especially in most breeds of obese type pigs. The mechanisms involved in adipogenesis and fat accumulation in pigs remain unclear. Lysine 2-hydroxyisobutyrylation (Khib), is a novel protein post-translational modification (PTM), which play an important role in transcription, energy metabolism and metastasis of cancer cells, but its role in adipogenesis and fat accumulation has not been shown. Results In this study, we first analyzed the modification levels of acetylation (Kac), Khib, crotonylation (Kcr) and succinylation (Ksu) of fibro-adipogenic progenitors (FAPs), myogenic precursors (Myo) and mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) with varied differentiation potential, and found that only Khib modification in FAPs was significantly higher than that in MSCs. Consistently, in parallel with its regulatory enzymes lysine acetyltransferase 5 (KAT5) and histone deacetylase 2 (HDAC2) protein levels, the Khib levels increased quadratically (P
