Ppargc1a - peroxisome proliferative activated receptor, gamma, coactivator 1 alpha Gene
Also Known as Pgc1; PGC-1; Pgco1; Gm11133; Ppargc1; Pgc-1alpha; A830037N07Rik; PPARGC-1-alpha
Species: Mus musculus
About Ppargc1a
This gene has 5 transcripts (splice variants), 206 orthologues, 2 paralogues and is associated with 99 phenotypes. Broad expression in heart adult (RPKM 4.1), frontal lobe adult (RPKM 3.9) and 22 other tissues.
Summary
This gene encodes a transcriptional coactivator that induces and coordinates gene expression regulating mitochondrial biogenesis, respiration, hepatic gluconeogenesis, thermogenic program in brown fat and muscle fiber-type switching. Mice lacking the encoded protein exhibit reduced thermogenic capacity, hyperactivity and resistance to diet-induced obesity. Mice lacking the encoded protein specifically in the heart exhibit peripartum cardiomyopathy. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Sep 2015]
