LIGAND BINDING DOMAIN OF THE HUMAN PEROXISOME PROLIFERATOR ACTIVATED RECEPTOR GAMMA

Overview

The peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-gamma (PPAR-gamma) is a, ligand-dependent transcription factor that is important in adipocyte, differentiation and glucose homeostasis and which depends on interactions, with co-activators, including steroid receptor co-activating factor-1, (SRC-1). Here we present the X-ray crystal structure of the human, apo-PPAR-gamma ligand-binding domain (LBD), at 2.2 A resolution; this, structure reveals a large binding pocket, which may explain the diversity, of ligands for PPAR-gamma. We also describe the ternary complex containing, the PPAR-gamma LBD, the antidiabetic ligand rosiglitazone (BRL49653), and, 88 amino acids of human SRC-1 at 2.3 A resolution. Glutamate and lysine, residues that are highly conserved in LBDs of nuclear receptors form a, ... [(full description)]
