Physiological functions of NHR-80

NHR-80 encodes a nuclear hormone receptor, expressed in the intestine, that regulates expression of the delta-9 desaturases FAT-5/-6/-7, and thus regulates fatty acid metabolism; NHR-80 is fully required for any expression of FAT-7, full expression of FAT-5/-6, viability in the absence of FAT-6, and transcriptional hyperactivation of fat-7 in the absence of FAT-6, and for a fully normal adult lifespan.

Potential applications of NHR-80 LBD

This LBD can be fused with different DBDs forming a composite hormone receptor for ligand regulated expression of specific genes and can also be a sensor for various lipid natured molecules.
