Gene Description | Carbohydrate-responsive element-binding protein is a glucose-responsive transcription factor that regulates glycolytic and lipogenic gene expression. High levels of glucose induce the transcriptional activity of ChREBP. ChREBP is most abundant in tissues of de novo lipogenesis and forms a heterotetramer with its binding partner MLX to bind to the promoter regions of its target genes. ChREBP regulates fatty acid synthesis, glucose homeostasis and insulin sensitivity in white adipose tissue. In white adipose tissue, ChREBP isoform α activates the expression of the potent ChREBP isoform β in a glucose-dependent manner. ChREBP-β expression levels predict insulin sensitivity in human white adipose tissue. In addition, research studies have shown that Akt2 induces the transcriptional activity of ChREBP-β to stimulate de novo lipogenesis in brown adipose tissue for fuel storage. Furthermore, ChREBP-β is a potent activator of lipogenesis in the liver. |
