Description
Predicted to have several functions, including DNA-binding transcription factor activity; RNA polymerase II repressing transcription factor binding activity; and nuclear receptor transcription coactivator activity. Predicted to be involved in several processes, including negative regulation of cholesterol storage; positive regulation of fatty acid metabolic process; and regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II. Predicted to localize to RNA polymerase II transcription factor complex. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Alzheimer's disease; coronary artery disease; hepatocellular carcinoma; lipid metabolism disorder; and myocardial infarction. Is expressed in several structures, including digestive system; heart; immature eye; nervous system; and spinal cord neural tube. Orthologous to human PPARA (peroxisome proliferator activated receptor alpha).
