Background Information
PPARGC1A, also named as Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma coactivator 1-alpha, is a 798 amino acid protein, which Contains 1 RRM (RNA recognition motif) domain and localizes in the nucleus. PPARGC1A is transcriptional coactivator for steroid receptors and nuclear receptors. PPARGC1A can regulate key mitochondrial genes that contribute to the program of adaptive thermogenesis and plays an essential role in metabolic reprogramming in response to dietary availability through coordination of the expression of a wide array of genes involved in glucose and fatty acid metabolism. PPARGC1A exists an isoform in the liver and the molecular weight of it is 77 kDa. Except for a deletion of 127 amino acids at the N terminus, the protein, termed L-PGC-1 α, is identical to PGC-1.

Reviews
What customers say
Users report this antibody performs well for Western Blot on mouse brain tissue, showing a clear band between 60–100 kDa, and for immunofluorescence on fibroblasts. However, several reviewers noted non-specific bands when used on adipocyte cells (both human and 3T3-L1), with unexpected molecular weights. One user also reported the antibody degraded after 9 months stored at -20°C. Overall, it is considered reliable for mouse tissue applications but may require optimization or KO validation for adipocyte studies.
The reviews below have been submitted by verified Proteintech customers who received an incentive for providing their feedback.
Manon (Verified Customer) (01-23-2026) | Good staining of PGC1 on fibroblast
|
Michaela (Verified Customer) (11-24-2023) | Worked well in 15μg mouse brain tissue lysate in Western Blot. Band appears between 60-100 kDa
|
No (Verified Customer) (10-24-2023) | A good antibody to detect endogenous PGC1a.
 |
Mi (Verified Customer) (03-07-2023) | It doesn´t work well in human white and brown adipocyte cells, we got bands at unexpected size. Further KO validation may be needed.
|
Huai-Chin (Verified Customer) (07-11-2022) | There are several non-specific bands. At least there's a dominant band after adipogenesis and we can use this antibody at a fairly high dilution.
|
Mohammad (Verified Customer) (01-21-2020) | It was working with some non-specific bands in lower weight. But after 9 months antibody was degraded in -20.
