Facts about Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma coactivator 1-alpha.
Plays an essential role in metabolic reprogramming in response to dietary availability through coordination of the expression of a large variety of genes involved in glucose and fatty acid metabolism. Induces the expression of PERM1 from the skeletal muscle in an ESRRA-dependent Method.

Heart, skeletal muscle, liver and kidney. Expressed at lower levels in brain and pancreas and at very low levels in the intestine and white adipose tissue. In skeletal muscle, levels were lower in obese than in lean subjects and fasting induced a 2-fold increase in levels in the skeletal muscle in obese subjects.
