Cat. No. : PPARG-1090H
Description : Recombinant His tagged PPARγ-LBD is isolated from an E. coli strain that carries the coding sequence of the human PPARγ under the control of a T7 promoter.There is evidence that a group of closely related nuclear receptors, called Peroxisome Proliferator- activated Receptors (PPARs), may be involved in chronic diseases such as diabetes, obesity, atherosclerosis and cancer. The PPARs were first cloned as the nuclear receptors that mediate the effects of synthetic compounds called peroxisome proliferators on gene transcription. It soon became clear that eicosanoids and fatty acids can also regulate gene transcription through PPARs. They bind a specific element in the promoter region of target genes only as a heterodimer with the receptor for 9-cis retinoic acid, RXR (Retinoid X Receptor). Binding of the ligand of either receptor can activate the complex, but binding of both ligands simultaneously is more potent. Three PPAR isotypes have been identified:α,β (also called NUC1) and γ. PPARα is expressed most in brown adipose tissue and liver, then kidney, heart and skeletal muscle. PPARγ is mainly expressed in adipose tissue, and to a lesser extent in colon, the immune system and the retina. PPARβ is found in many tissues but the highest expression is in the gut, kidney and heart. PPARγ influences the storage of fatty acids in the adipose tissue. With the C/EBP transcription factors, PPARγ is part of the adipocyte differentiation program that induces the maturation of pre-adipocytes into fat cells. Most of the PPARγ target genes in adipose tissue are directly implicated in lipogenic pathways, including lipoprotein lipase (LPL), adipocyte fatty acid binding protein (A-FABP or AP2), acyl-CoA synthase and fatty acid transport protein (FATP). In addition, PPARγ is a direct target gene of the transcription factor sterol response element binding protein 1 (SREBP1) emphasizing the cooperative and additive functions between these two types of receptor.

Q&As (7)

Ask a question
How many isoforms of PPARG are there, and what are their weights? 04/07/2022

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? 12/16/2021

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

What does PPARG stand for? 02/02/2021

PPARG stands for Peroxisome Proliferator-Activated Receptor Gamma.

Is there a mitochondria-localized form of PPARG? 01/21/2021

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? 12/20/2019

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? 11/10/2017

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? 03/19/2017

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.
