Peroxisome proliferator activated receptor (PPAR) agonists are currently used therapeutically in humans even though many of their direct gene targets may be unknown. Since PPARs can directly regulate gene expression through peroxisome proliferator response elements (PPREs), we pursued the computational prediction of PPREs on a genome-wide scale. Contrary to current hypotheses, PPREs are not isotype-specific nor do flanking nucleotides confer additional information. However, a position weight matrix (PWM)-based search for PPREs within upstream conserved elements yielded sufficient selectivity for a genome-wide search. Additionally, a novel motif occuring with greater prevalence than PPREs is revealed. Microarray and gene ontology analyses further validate our search technique and provide new functional clusters of genes that were not previously known to be directly regulated by PPARs (e.g. chromatin remodeling, DNA damage response, Wnt and MAPK signaling). This first genome-wide library of high-confidence predicted PPAR target genes will be a valuable resource to PPAR biologists.
