Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma coactivator 1-alpha
Description
Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-Ξ³ (PPAR-Ξ³) coactivator-1Ξ± (PGC-1Ξ±) is a protein which functions as an inducible transcriptional coactivator, a coregulator of transcription factors, particularly NRF-1 and TFAM. PGC-1Ξ± was first described in 1998 (Puigserver_1998_Cell). PGC-1Ξ± drives the formation of slow-twich muscle fibres (Lin_2002_Nature) and is increased upon endurance training (Norrbom_2004_J Appl Physiol). PGC-1Ξ± expression is inhibited by the proinflammatory cytokine tumor necrosis factor Ξ± (TNF-Ξ±) and high levels of leptin. Upregulation of PGC-1Ξ± expression is induced by increased eNOS activity -> NO -> guanylate cyclase -> cGMP (Nisoli_2007_Circ Res). AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) increases PGC-1Ξ± expression through SIRT1 (Canto_2009_Nature).

PGC-1Ξ±
PGC-1Ξ± is a member of the PGC-1 family of coactivators, which includes PGC-1Ξ² and PGC-1βrelated coactivator(PRC). PGC-1Ξ± is to be a powerful regulator of energy metabolism under conditions of both health and disease and as such interacts with a broad range of transcription factors that are involved in a wide variety of biological responses including adaptive thermogenesis, mitochondrial biogenesis, glucose and fatty acid metabolism, ο¬ber type switching in skeletal muscle, and heart ontogenesis. In general, PGC-1Ξ± is highly expressed in mitochondria-rich tissues with active oxidative metabolism such as brown adipose tissue (BAT), the heart, and skeletal muscle.
Mechanism
By interacting with transcription factors, a transcription coactivator, increases the probability of a gene being transcribed without itself binding to DNA in a sequence-speciο¬c manner. Although members of the PGC-1 family lack histone acetyltransferase (HAT) activities, their amino-terminal region interacts with proteins containing HAT activity. The HAT activity of this complex remodels histones within chromatin, leading to enzymatic modification of chromatin, increased access of the RNA polymerase II machinery to RNA, thereby activating target gene transcription.
