Research Abstract |
The constitutive androstane receptor (CAR) plays an important role of a defence mechanism against the toxicity of xenobiotics. In this study, we identified novel CAR binding proteins, which were AMPKβ, DP97, PRMT5 and Hsp60. We showed DP97 and PRMT5 act as a gene (or promoter)-selective co-activators for CAR. Furthermore, we showed the basal transcriptional activity of unliganded CAR was shown to be repressed by the potent liver X receptor (LXR) agonist, T0901317
