Background

Peroxisome Proliferator-Activated Receptors (PPARs) are nuclear receptors involved in lipid transport and metabolism. As such, their roles in chronic diseases such as diabetes, obesity, atherosclerosis and cancer are heavily investigated. Transcriptional activity of PPARs is regulated by fatty acid binding. Three PPAR isotypes have been identified: α, δ and ϒ. PPARγ stimulates lipolysis of circulating triglycerides and the subsequent uptake of fatty acids into adipose cells. PPARs bind to peroxisome proliferator response elements (PPREs) as heterodimers with the retinoid X receptor (RXR).

Application Notes

Recombinant PPARγ is suitable for DNA and protein-protein interaction assays. 20 ng are sufficient for gelshift assays and 100 ng are sufficient for protein-protein interaction studies. The molecular weight of the protein is ~60 kDa. This protein is not recommended for TransAM®. NOTE: The presence of Poly [d(I-C)] in buffers may affect protein functionality and should be avoided.

Protein Details

Recombinant PPARγ is isolated from an E. coli strain that carries the coding sequence of the human PPARγ under the control of a T7 promoter (accession number NM 138712). The purified recombinant protein has an N-terminal His-Tag and is greater than 95% homogeneous and contains no detectable protease, DNase and RNase activity.
