Abstract excerpt
Hepatocyte nuclear factor 4alpha (HNF4alpha) is essential for the establishment and maintenance of liver-specific gene expression. The HNF4alpha gene codes for several isoforms whose developmental and physiological relevance has not yet been explored. HNF4alpha1 and HNF4alpha7 originate from different promoters, while alternative splicing in 3' leads to HNF4alpha2 and HNF4alpha8, respectively. HNF4alpha7/alpha8...
