| Subcellular location | Nucleus |
| Developmental Stage | Oocytes, embryos, and adults. |
| Similarity | Belongs to the nuclear hormone receptor family. NR1 subfamily. Contains 1 nuclear receptor DNA-binding domain. |
| Tissue Specificity | Ubiquitous. |
| 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. |
