Gene: PPRC1

Alternate names for this Gene: PRC

Gene Summary: The protein encoded by this gene is similar to PPAR-gamma coactivator 1 (PPARGC1/PGC-1), a protein that can activate mitochondrial biogenesis in part through a direct interaction with nuclear respiratory factor 1 (NRF1). This protein has been shown to interact with NRF1. It is thought to be a functional relative of PPAR-gamma coactivator 1 that activates mitochondrial biogenesis through NRF1 in response to proliferative signals. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.

Gene is located in Chromosome: 10

Location in Chromosome : 10q24.32

Description of this Gene: PPARG related coactivator 1
