Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma coactivator 1-alpha (PPARGC1A)

Greatly increases the transcriptional activity of PPARG and thyroid hormone receptor on the uncoupling protein promoter. Can modulate key mitochondrial genes that contribute to the program of adaptive thermogenesis.

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.
