A cDNA fragment which encodes salmon peroxisome proliferator activated receptor y (sPPARgamma) was amplified by PCR from the liver of Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar L.). The fragment was 627 bp long. The sequence of the amplified PCR product was similar to the PPARgamma of mouse and hamster. 59% of the bases were identical. Northern blot analysis of salmon liver mRNA showed that the amplified sPPARgamma fragment hybridised to three specific transcripts of lengths 1.6, 2.4 and 3.3 kb. Clofibric acid and bezafibrate, administered to salmon hepatocytes in culture, resulted in a 1.7-fold increase of the 1.6 kb sPPARgamma transcript. The activity of acyl-CoA oxidase also increased approx. 1.7-fold after administration of fibrates. These results indicate that PPAR is an important factor in mediating enzymatic response to fibrates in fish.

D010088 Oxidoreductases The class of all enzymes catalyzing oxidoreduction reactions. The substrate that is oxidized is regarded as a hydrogen donor. The systematic name is based on donor:acceptor oxidoreductase. The recommended name will be dehydrogenase, wherever this is possible; as an alternative, reductase can be used. Oxidase is only used in cases where O2 is the acceptor. (Enzyme Nomenclature, 1992, p9) Dehydrogenases,Oxidases,Oxidoreductase,Reductases,Dehydrogenase,Oxidase,Reductase
D002994 Clofibrate A fibric acid derivative used in the treatment of HYPERLIPOPROTEINEMIA TYPE III and severe HYPERTRIGLYCERIDEMIA.
