Nutrient-dependent phosphorylation channels lipid synthesis to regulate PPARα
Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor (PPAR)α is a nuclear receptor that coordinates liver metabolism during fasting. Fatty acid synthase (FAS) is an enzyme that stores excess calories as fat during feeding, but it also activates hepatic PPARα by promoting synthesis of an endogenous ligand. Her...
