Target type: molecularfunction
Combining with a bile acid and transmitting the signal to initiate a change in cell activity. A bile acid is any member of a group of steroid carboxylic acids occurring in bile. [GOC:bf, PMID:10334992, PMID:12718893]
Bile acid receptors, also known as nuclear receptors, are a family of proteins that play crucial roles in the regulation of lipid metabolism, glucose homeostasis, and inflammation. These receptors bind to bile acids, which are steroid acids synthesized in the liver from cholesterol. Upon binding, they undergo conformational changes that modulate their activity.
The molecular function of bile acid receptor activity involves several key steps:
1. **Ligand Binding:** Bile acids bind to the ligand-binding domain of the receptor, initiating a cascade of events.
2. **Conformational Change:** Binding of bile acids induces a conformational change in the receptor, leading to its activation.
3. **Nuclear Translocation:** Activated receptors translocate to the nucleus, where they interact with specific DNA sequences.
4. **Gene Regulation:** In the nucleus, bile acid receptors bind to DNA sequences known as bile acid response elements (BAREs). This binding regulates the transcription of target genes, influencing the expression of proteins involved in lipid metabolism, glucose homeostasis, and inflammation.
Specific examples of target genes regulated by bile acid receptors include:
- **CYP7A1:** This gene encodes the rate-limiting enzyme in bile acid synthesis.
- **SREBP1c:** This gene encodes a transcription factor that promotes fatty acid synthesis.
- **FGF19:** This gene encodes a hormone that inhibits bile acid synthesis.
The regulation of these genes by bile acid receptors contributes to the overall homeostasis of lipid and glucose metabolism, as well as the control of inflammation.
Through their intricate molecular functions, bile acid receptors play a critical role in maintaining metabolic health and influencing a wide range of physiological processes.'
