(Nuclear Receptor Interacting Protein 1 (NRIP1))
RIP140 is a nuclear protein that specifically interacts with the hormone-dependent activation domain AF2 of nuclear receptors. Also known as nuclear receptor interacting protein 1 (NRIP1), this protein modulates transcriptional activity of the estrogen receptor. Steroid and thyroid hormones and retinoic acid regulate a complex array of gene expression activity via intracellular receptor transcription factors belonging to the ligand dependent nuclear receptor superfamily. Adding to the complexity of function of these transcription factors are associated proteins known as coactivators and corepressors which, as their names suggest, enhance or depress transcription activity of the nuclear receptor with which they associate. Receptor Interacting Protein 140 (RIP 140) has been shown to enhance estrogen receptor transcriptional activity through the AF2 activation domain in an agonist dependent manner and has also been implicated to be involved in other steroid receptor pathways, including the retinoid pathway. RIP 140 has recently been shown to interact with peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-alpha (PPAR alpha) and has been proposed to competitively inhibit PPAR alpha interaction with Steroid Receptor Coactivator-1 (SRC-1).Synonyms: Nuclear factor RIP140, Nuclear receptor-interacting protein 1, Receptor-interacting protein 140
