Enzyme Regulation | PDPK1 activates its transcriptional activity independently of its kinase activity. |
Function | Nuclear receptor that binds peroxisome proliferators such as hypolipidemic drugs and fatty acids. Once activated by a ligand, the nuclear receptor binds to DNA specific PPAR response elements (PPRE) and modulates the transcription of its target genes, such as acyl-CoA oxidase. It therefore controls the peroxisomal beta-oxidation pathway of fatty acids. Key regulator of adipocyte differentiation and glucose homeostasis. ARF6 acts as a key regulator of the tissue-specific adipocyte P2 (aP2) enhancer. Acts as a critical regulator of gut homeostasis by suppressing NF-kappa-B-mediated proinflammatory responses. {ECO |

Ptm | O-GlcNAcylation at Thr-84 reduces transcriptional activity in adipocytes. |
Ptm | Phosphorylated in basal conditions and dephosphorylated when treated with the ligand. May be dephosphorylated by PPP5C. The phosphorylated form may be inactive and dephosphorylation at Ser- 112 induces adipogenic activity (By similarity). |
Sequence Caution | Sequence=AAN38992.2; Type=Erroneous initiation; Note=Translation N-terminally extended.; Evidence= ; Sequence=BAA23354.1; Type=Erroneous gene model prediction; Evidence= ; Sequence=BAF83270.1; Type=Erroneous initiation; Note=Translation N-terminally extended.; Evidence= ; Sequence=CAA62153.1; Type=Erroneous initiation; Note=Translation N-terminally extended.; Evidence= ; |
Similarity | Belongs to the nuclear hormone receptor family. NR1 subfamily. |
Similarity | Contains 1 nuclear receptor DNA-binding domain. |
Subcellular Location | Nucleus. Cytoplasm. Note=Redistributed from the nucleus to the cytosol through a MAP2K1/MEK1-dependent manner. CCRN4L/NOC enhances its nuclear translocation. |
Subunit | Interacts with FOXO1 (acetylated form) (By similarity). Heterodimer with other nuclear receptors, such as RXRA. The heterodimer with the retinoic acid receptor RXRA is called adipocyte-specific transcription factor ARF6. Interacts with NCOA6 coactivator, leading to a strong increase in transcription of target genes. Interacts with coactivator PPARBP, leading to a mild increase in transcription of target genes. Interacts with NOCA7 in a ligand-inducible manner. Interacts with NCOA1 and NCOA2 LXXLL motifs. Interacts with ASXL1, ASXL2, DNTTIP2, FAM120B, MAP2K1/MEK1, NR0B2, PDPK1, PRDM16, PRMT2 and TGFB1I1. Interacts (when activated by agonist) with PPP5C. Interacts with HELZ2 and THRAP3; the interaction stimulates the transcriptional activity of PPARG. Interacts with PER2, the interaction is ligand dependent and blocks PPARG recruitment to target promoters. Interacts with CCRN4L/NOC. {ECO |
