Gene: HNF1A

Alternate names for this Gene: HNF-1A|HNF1|HNF4A|IDDM20|LFB1|MODY3|TCF-1|TCF1

Gene Summary: The protein encoded by this gene is a transcription factor required for the expression of several liver-specific genes. The encoded protein functions as a homodimer and binds to the inverted palindrome 5'-GTTAATNATTAAC-3'. Defects in this gene are a cause of maturity onset diabetes of the young type 3 (MODY3) and also can result in the appearance of hepatic adenomas. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms.
