Ppard | Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor delta; Ligand-activated transcription factor. Receptor that binds peroxisome proliferators such as hypolipidemic drugs and fatty acids. Has a preference for poly-unsaturated fatty acids, such as gamma- linoleic acid and eicosapentanoic acid. Once activated by a ligand, the receptor binds to promoter elements of target genes. Regulates the peroxisomal beta-oxidation pathway of fatty acids. Functions as transcription activator for the acyl-CoA oxidase gene. Decreases expression of NPC1L1 once activated by a ligand (By similarity). Belongs to the [...] (440 aa) | ||||
Kiss1r | KiSS-1 receptor; Receptor for metastin (kisspeptin-52 or kp-52), a C- terminally amidated peptide of KiSS1. KiSS1 is a metastasis suppressor protein. Activation of the receptor inhibits cell proliferation and cell migration, key characteristics of tumor metastasis. The receptor is essential for normal gonadotropin-released hormone physiology and for puberty. The hypothalamic KiSS1/KISS1R system is a pivotal factor in central regulation of the gonadotropic axis at puberty and in adulthood. Analysis of the transduction pathways activated by the receptor identifies coupling to phospholipa [...] (396 aa) |
