- Description
- Predicted to enable DNA-binding transcription repressor activity, RNA polymerase II-specific; RNA polymerase II cis-regulatory region sequence-specific DNA binding activity; and nuclear receptor activity. Acts upstream of or within regulation of lipid metabolic process and triglyceride homeostasis. Predicted to be located in cytoplasm. Predicted to be active in nucleus. Is expressed in several structures, including adipose tissue; digestive system; female organism; male organism; and pleuroperitoneal region. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in several diseases, including cardiovascular system disease (multiple); end stage renal disease; lipodystrophy (multiple); obesity; and type 2 diabetes mellitus. Orthologous to human PPARG (peroxisome proliferator activated receptor gamma).
