| Description: | This gene encodes a member of the peroxisomeproliferator-activated receptor (PPAR) family. PPARs are nuclearhormone receptors that bind peroxisome proliferators and controlthe size and number of peroxisomes produced by cells. PPARs mediatea variety of biological processes, and may be involved in thedevelopment of several chronic diseases, including diabetes,obesity, atherosclerosis, and cancer. This protein is a potentinhibitor of ligand-induced transcription activity of PPAR alphaand PPAR gamma. It may function as an integrator of transcriptionrepression and nuclear receptor signaling. The expression of thisgene is found to be elevated in colorectal cancer cells. Theelevated expression can be repressed by adenomatosis polyposis coli(APC), a tumor suppressor protein related to APC/beta-cateninsignaling pathway. Knockout studies in mice suggested the role ofthis protein in myelination of the corpus callosum, lipidmetabolism, and epidermal cell proliferation. Alternate splicingresults in multiple transcript variants. |
| Further Information: | This PPARD antibody is generated from rabbits immunized with a KLH conjugated synthetic peptide between 364-393 amino acids from the C-terminal region of human PPARD. |
