Description
Exhibits DNA-binding transcription factor activity. Involved in pancreas regeneration; response to bacterium; and type B pancreatic cell development. Predicted to localize to nucleus. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Fanconi syndrome; familial combined hyperlipidemia; hypoglycemia; maturity-onset diabetes of the young type 1; and type 2 diabetes mellitus. Is expressed in gut; intestinal bulb primordium; liver; pleuroperitoneal region; and yolk syncytial layer. Orthologous to human HNF4A (hepatocyte nuclear factor 4 alpha).
