[https://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/PPARD_HUMAN PPARD_HUMAN] Ligand-activated transcription factor. Receptor that binds peroxisome proliferators such as hypolipidemic drugs and fatty acids. Has a preference for poly-unsaturated fatty acids, such as gamma-linoleic acid and eicosapentanoic acid. Once activated by a ligand, the receptor binds to promoter elements of target genes. Regulates the peroxisomal beta-oxidation pathway of fatty acids. Functions as transcription activator for the acyl-CoA oxidase gene. Decreases expression of NPC1L1 once activated by a ligand.<ref>PMID:1333051</ref> <ref>PMID:15604518</ref> | [https://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/PPARD_HUMAN PPARD_HUMAN] Ligand-activated transcription factor.
