Resumo

How can an ex-orphan be adopted? Is it possible to do so by attributing to it a key endogenous ligand that regulates its central functions? In the recent issue of Cell, Chakravarthy et al. attempted to answer this question by characterizing a new physiologically relevant ligand for the ex-orphan receptor peroxisome proliferator activated receptor alpha (PPARalpha).
