Abstract excerpt
Hepatocyte nuclear factor-1beta (HNF-1beta) is a homeodomain-containing transcription factor that regulates tissue-specific gene expression in the kidney and other epithelial organs. Mutations of HNF-1beta produce congenital cystic abnormalities of the kidney, and previous studies showed that HNF-1beta regulates the expression of the autosomal recessive polycystic kidney disease (ARPKD) gene, Pkhd1. Here we show...
