Description | Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor alpha;PPAR-alpha;Alternative Name: Nuclear receptor subfamily 1 group C member 1 |
Source organism | Cavia porcellus (Guinea pig) |
Taxonomical Classification | Eukaryota; Metazoa; Chordata; Craniata; Vertebrata; Euteleostomi;Mammalia; Eutheria; Euarchontoglires; Glires; Rodentia;Hystricognathi; Caviidae; Cavia. |
Subcellular location | Nucleus |
Developmental Stage | N/A |
Similarity | Belongs to the nuclear hormone receptor family. NR1 subfamily. Contains 1 nuclear receptor DNA-binding domain. |
Tissue Specificity | N/A |
Post translational modification | N/A |
Function | Receptor that binds peroxisome proliferators such as hypolipidemic drugs and fatty acids. Once activated by a ligand, the receptor binds to a promoter element in the gene for acyl-CoA oxidase and activates its transcription. It therefore controls the peroxisomal beta-oxidation pathway of fatty acids (By similarity). |
