Abstract excerpt
Three pharmacologically important nuclear receptors, the peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors (PPARs alpha, gamma, and delta), mediate key transcriptional responses involved in lipid homeostasis. The PPAR alpha and gamma subtypes are well conserved from Xenopus to man, but the beta/delta subtypes display substantial species variations in both structure and ligand activation profiles. Characterization of...
