About Ppara

Chromosome 15: 85,619,184-85,687,020 forward strand.GRCm39:CM001008.3

This gene has 6 transcripts (splice variants), 455 orthologues, 19 paralogues and is associated with 52 phenotypes. Broad expression in liver adult (RPKM 11.2), kidney adult (RPKM 8.7) and 15 other tissues.

Summary

Enables several functions, including DNA-binding transcription factor activity; RNA polymerase II cis-regulatory region sequence-specific DNA binding activity; and lipid binding activity. Involved in several processes, including negative regulation of appetite; positive regulation of fatty acid oxidation; and regulation of gene expression. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including enamel mineralization; positive regulation of cellular biosynthetic process; and wound healing. Predicted to be located in nucleoplasm. Is expressed in several structures, including adipose tissue; early conceptus; heart; liver; and oocyte. Used to study diabetes mellitus. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Alzheimer's disease; coronary artery disease; hepatocellular carcinoma; lipid metabolism disorder; and myocardial infarction. Orthologous to human PPARA (peroxisome proliferator activated receptor alpha). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
