Description

Predicted to enable RNA polymerase II cis-regulatory region sequence-specific DNA binding activity and nuclear receptor activity. Predicted to be involved in several processes, including hormone-mediated signaling pathway; negative regulation of inflammatory response; and regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II. Predicted to act upstream of or within regulation of DNA-templated transcription. Predicted to be located in nucleus. Is expressed in several structures, including digestive system; heart; immature eye; nervous system; and spinal cord neural tube. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Alzheimer's disease; coronary artery disease; hepatocellular carcinoma; lipid metabolism disorder; and myocardial infarction. Orthologous to human PPARA (peroxisome proliferator activated receptor alpha).
