About This Section Entrez Gene summary for HNF4A : The protein encoded by this gene is a nuclear transcription factor which binds DNA as a homodimer. The encoded protein controls the expression of several genes, including hepatocyte nuclear factor 1 alpha, a transcription factor which regulates the expression of several hepatic genes. This gene may play a role in development of the liver, kidney, and intestines. Mutations in this gene have been associated with monogenic autosomal dominant non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus type I. Alternative splicing of this gene results in multiple transcript variants encoding several different isoforms. (provided by RefSeq, Apr 2012) UniProtKB/Swiss-Prot: HNF4A_HUMAN, P41235 Function : Transcriptionally controlled transcription factor. Binds to DNA sites required for the transcription of alpha1-antitrypsin, apolipoprotein CIII, transthyretin genes and HNF1-alpha. May be essential for development of the liver, kidney and intestine Gene Wiki entry for HNF4A (Hepatocyte nuclear factor 4 alpha)

Phosphorylated on tyrosine residue(s); phosphorylation is important for its DNA-binding activity. Phosphorylation may directly or indirectly play a regulatory role in the subnuclear distribution. Phosphorylation at Ser-313 by AMPK reduces the ability to form homodimers and bind DNA1
Acetylation at Lys-458 lowers transcriptional activation by about two-fold1

Defects in HNF4A are the cause of maturity-onset diabetes of the young type 1 (MODY1) [MIM:125850]; also symbolized MODY-1. MODY is a form of diabetes that is characterized by an autosomal dominant mode of inheritance, onset in childhood or early adulthood (usually before 25 years of age), a primary defect in insulin secretion and frequent insulin-independence at the beginning of the disease 20/76 diseases for HNF4A (see all 76 ): About MalaCards diabetes mellitus hepatitis diabetes mellitus, noninsulin-dependent maturity-onset diabetes of the young factor vii deficiency maturity-onset diabetes of the young, type 3 maturity-onset diabetes of the young, type 1 familial adenomatous polyposis retinol binding protein adenomatous polyposis coli developmental disabilities hyperinsulinemic hypoglycemia type 2 diabetes mellitus herpes simplex ureteral obstruction hypoglycemia insulin resistance strabismus metabolic disorders diabetic ketoacidosis 4 diseases from the University of Copenhagen DISEASES database for HNF4A :maturity-onset diabetes of the young Diabetes mellitus Colorectal cancer Familial adenomatous polyposis 10/70 Novoseek disease relationships for HNF4A gene (see all 70 ) About this table
