The Krüppel-Like Protein Gli-Similar 3 (Glis3) Functions as a Key Regulator of Insulin Transcription
9 Aug 2013
Abstract excerpt
Transcriptional regulation of insulin in pancreatic β-cells is mediated primarily through enhancer elements located within the 5' upstream regulatory region of the preproinsulin gene. Recently, the Krüppel-like transcription factor, Gli-similar 3 (Glis3), was shown to bind the insulin (INS) promoter and positively influence insulin transcription. In this report, we examined in detail the synergistic activation of...
