Active Recombinant Human PPARG, His-tagged

• Cat.No.: PPARG-67H
• Product Overview: Peroxisome Proliferator Activated Receptor Gamma Human Recombinant is expressed in E.coli having a molecular weight of 59.2 kDa and fused to an amino terminal hexahistidine tag.

Specification

• Description: This gene encodes a member of the peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor (PPAR) subfamily of nuclear receptors. PPARs form heterodimers with retinoid X receptors (RXRs) and these heterodimers regulate transcription of various genes. Three subtypes of PPARs are known: PPAR-alpha, PPAR-delta, and PPAR-gamma. The protein encoded by this gene is PPAR-gamma and is a regulator of adipocyte differentiation. Additionally, PPAR-gamma has been implicated in the pathology of numerous diseases including obesity, diabetes, atherosclerosis and cancer. Alternatively spliced transcript variants that encode different isoforms have been described.
• Source: E. Coli
• Species: Human
• Tag: His
• Form: Sterile Filtered clear solution. The protein solution contains PBS, 50% glycerol and 0.01% azide.
• Bio-activity: Specific activity is 3-4 units/ml obtained by measuring the increase of NADPH in absorbance at 340 nm resulting from the reduction of NADP. In the coupled mode, one unit will produce 1.0 umole of NADPH per minute as glucose is phosphorylated by ATP at pH 7.4 at 300C.

Q&As

How many isoforms of PPARG are there, and what are their weights?

PPARG has two isoforms, PPARG1 (57 kDa) and PPARG2, a splice variant with an additional 30 amino acids at the N-terminus.

What is the molecular weight of PPARG?

PPARG has two isoforms with molecular weights of 57 kDa and 54 kDa. Modified PPARG is about 67 kDa.

What does PPARG stand for?

PPARG stands for Peroxisome Proliferator-Activated Receptor Gamma.

Is there a mitochondria-localized form of PPARG?

Yes, experimental data suggests a 45 kDa protein immunologically related to PPARG, called mt-PPAR, is located in mitochondria. Its molecular weight is less than PPARG2.

What is the role of PPARG in cellular function?

PPARG is a ligand-activated transcription factor that plays a crucial role in regulating lipid homeostasis, adipogenesis, insulin resistance, and organ development.

What are the known diseases associated with PPARG defects?

Defects in PPARG are associated with familial partial lipodystrophy type 3 (FPLD3), susceptibility to obesity, type 2 insulin-resistant diabetes, hypertension, and colon cancer.

Where is PPARG mainly localized?

PPARG is mainly localized in the nucleus, although it can also be detected in the cytoplasm, exhibiting extra-nuclear/non-genomic actions in certain contexts.
