DomainContains 2 Leu-Xaa-Xaa-Leu-Leu (LXXLL) motif, which are usually required for the association with nuclear receptors.
FunctionPlays a role of stimulator of transcription factors and nuclear receptors activities. Activates transcritional activity of estrogen receptor alpha, nuclear respiratory factor 1 (NRF1) and glucocorticoid receptor in the presence of glucocorticoids. May play a role in constitutive non-adrenergic-mediated mitochondrial biogenesis as suggested by increased basal oxygen consumption and mitochondrial number when overexpressed. May be involved in fat oxidation and non-oxidative glucose metabolism and in the regulation of energy expenditure. Induces the expression of PERM1 in the skeletal muscle in an ESRRA-dependent manner. {ECO
InductionRepressed by saturated fatty acids such as palmitate and stearate in skeletal muscle cells. Induced by insulin and reduced by aging in skeletal muscle biopsies. Down-regulated in type 2 diabetes mellitus subjects as well as in pre-diabetics.
PolymorphismVariation of PPARGC1B may contribute to the pathogenesis of obesity, with a widespread Ala-203 allele being a risk factor for the development of this common disorders.
SimilarityContains 1 RRM (RNA recognition motif) domain.
Subcellular LocationNucleus .
SubunitInteracts with hepatocyte nuclear factor 4-alpha/HNF4A, Sterol regulatory binding transcription factor 1/SREBF1, PPAR- alpha/PPARA, thyroid hormone receptor beta/THRB and host cell factor/HCFC1. Interacts with estrogen-related receptor gamma/ESRRG and alpha/ESRRA. Interacts with PRDM16 (By similarity). Interacts with estrogen receptor alpha/ESR1. {ECO
Tissue SpecificityUbiquitous with higher expression in heart, brain and skeletal muscle. {ECO
