Necroptosis is a form of regulated cell death which results in loss of plasma membrane integrity, release of intracellular contents, and an associated inflammatory response. We previously found that saturated very long chain fatty acids (VLCFAs), which contain ≥20 carbons, accumulate during necroptosis. Here, we show that genetic knockdown of Fatty Acid (FA) Elongase 7 (ELOVL7) reduces accumulation of specific very long chain FAs during necroptosis, resulting in reduced necroptotic cell death and membrane permeabilization. Conversely, increasing the expression of ELOVL7 increases very long chain fatty acids and membrane permeabilization. , introduction of the VLCFA C24 FA disrupts bilayer integrity in liposomes to a greater extent than a conventional C16 FA. To investigate the microscopic origin of these observations, atomistic Molecular Dynamics (MD) simulations were performed. MD simulations suggest that fatty acids cause clear differences in bilayers based on length and that it is the interdigitation of C24 FA between the individual leaflets that results in disorder in the region and, consequently, membrane disruption. We synthesized clickable VLCFA analogs and observed that many proteins were acylated by VLCFAs during necroptosis. Taken together, these results confirm the active role of VLCFAs during necroptosis and point to multiple potential mechanisms of membrane disruption including direct permeabilization via bilayer disruption and permeabilization by targeting of proteins to cellular membranes by fatty acylation.
