StructuralOrganization of PPARγ-1 and PPARγ-2 PPARγ-1 PPARγ-2 PPARγ-1 and PPARγ-2 areisoforms of PPARγ. PPARγ and PPARγ-1 arestructurallyidentical, though PPARγ-2 has a longer N-terminal domain (30-residue extension of aminoacids).
a) Phosphorylation of PPARγ-2 Thephosphorylation of PPARγ-2 takesplace on S112 (serine 112 site) on the AF1 region. The phosphorylationactivatesthereceptor and results in theadipogenicgeneprogram. b) Phosphorylation and Sumoylation of PPARγ-2 Phosphorylation of S112 togetherwithsumoylation of K107 of PPARγ-2 occurs on the AF1 region.Thisarrayinhibitstheactivity of thereceptor and results in a reducedadipogenicgeneprogram. c) Sumoylation of PPARγ-2 Thesumoylation of K107 of PPARγ-2 occurs on the AF2 region.
