DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The SNS integrates the function of metabolic tissues through regulation of transcriptional programs that effect remodeling of the cellular proteome. Evidence has emerged to support the view that PGC1 is the critical transcriptional co-activator linking p-adrenergic receptors to transcriptional programs which have the common theme of increasing oxidative capacity through coordinated induction of nuclear-encoded mitochondrial genes. We have discovered a novel splice variant of PGC1 which produces a truncated protein representing the first 267 AAs of the N-terminus and an additional 3 AAs from the splicing insert. Expression of the N trucated 270 AA protein (NT-PGC1) is dynamically regulated in the context of physiological signals which regulate full length protein. More importantly, we have shown through a comprehensive series of preliminary experiments that its unique domain structure conveys significant in vitro and in vivo properties which enhance SNS-dependent adipose tissue remodeling. Collectively, these data are uniformly consistent with the concept that NT-PGC1 is an important, previously unrecognized component of the signaling system which translates SNS input into transcriptional responses. Although the present proposal is focused on adipose tissue, a better understanding of how NT-PGC1 functions here has broad implications with respect to other tissues like liver and muscle where regulation of PGC1 function is also critical. We have created cell lines and transgenic mice which express NT-PGC1 in an adipose tissue-specific and inducible manner. In complementary studies, brown adipocytes will be immortalized from PGC1 null mice, followed by reintroduction of NT-PGC1 or PGC1 by stable transformation to assess the unique function of each splice variant. Our goal is to assess the in vivo and in vitro role of this novel protein with respect to how it regulates PGC1-dependent processe and regulates the translation of sympathetic input into adipose and other metabolically active tissues.

描述（由申请人提供）：SNS通过调节影响细胞蛋白质组重塑的转录程序整合代谢组织的功能。已经出现的证据支持这样的观点，即PGC 1是将β-肾上腺素能受体连接到转录程序的关键转录共激活剂，所述转录程序具有通过协调诱导核编码的线粒体基因来增加氧化能力的共同主题。我们发现了一种新的PGC 1剪接变体，它产生一个截短的蛋白质，代表N-末端的前267个AA和来自剪接插入物的另外3个AA。在调节全长蛋白质的生理信号的背景下，N-截短的270 AA蛋白（NT-PGC 1）的表达被动态调节。更重要的是，我们已经通过一系列全面的初步实验表明，其独特的结构域结构传达了显着的体外和体内特性，增强SNS依赖性脂肪组织重塑。总的来说，这些数据是一致的概念，NT-PGC 1是一个重要的，以前未被识别的组件的信号系统，翻译SNS输入到转录反应。虽然目前的建议是集中在脂肪组织，更好地了解如何NT-PGC 1功能在这里有广泛的影响，相对于其他组织，如肝脏和肌肉，PGC 1功能的调节也是至关重要的。我们已经建立了细胞系和转基因小鼠表达NT-PGC 1在脂肪组织特异性和诱导的方式。在补充研究中，将从PGC 1缺失小鼠中永生化棕色脂肪细胞，然后通过稳定转化重新引入NT-PGC 1或PGC 1，以评估每种剪接变体的独特功能。我们的目标是评估这种新型蛋白质在体内和体外的作用，它如何调节PGC 1依赖的过程和调节交感神经输入到脂肪和其他代谢活性组织的翻译。
