Structural highlights
Publication Abstract from PubMedHuman peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors (hPPARs) are ligand-dependent transcription factors that control various biological responses, and there are three subtypes: hPPARalpha, hPPARdelta, and hPPARgamma. We report here that alpha-substituted phenylpropanoic acid-type hPPAR agonists with similar structure bind to the hPPAR ligand binding domain (LBD) in different conformations, depending on the receptor subtype. These results might indicate that hPPAR ligand binding pockets have multiple binding points that can be utilized to accommodate structurally flexible hPPAR ligands. Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors (PPARs) have multiple binding points that accommodate ligands in various conformations: phenylpropanoic acid-type PPAR ligands bind to PPAR in different conformations, depending on the subtype.,Kuwabara N, Oyama T, Tomioka D, Ohashi M, Yanagisawa J, Shimizu T, Miyachi H J Med Chem. 2012 Jan 26;55(2):893-902.
