MODY7 Gene, KLF11, Is a Novel p300-dependent Regulator of Pdx-1 (MODY4) Transcription in Pancreatic Islet β Cells
21 Oct 2009
Abstract excerpt
Pdx-1 (pancreatic-duodenal homeobox-1), a MODY4 homeodomain transcription factor, serves as a master regulator in the pancreas because of its importance during organogenesis and in adult islet insulin-producing beta cell activity. Here, we show that KLF11, an SP/Krüppel-like (SP/KLF) transcription factor, mutated in French maturity onset diabetes of the young patients (MODY7), regulates Pdx-1 transcription in...
