Protein function (UniProt)

Hepatocyte nuclear factor 1-beta

Transcription factor that binds to the inverted palindrome 5'-GTTAATNATTAAC-3' (PubMed:17924661, PubMed:7900999). Binds to the FPC element in the cAMP regulatory unit of the PLAU gene (By similarity). Transcriptional activity is increased by coactivator PCBD1 (PubMed:24204001)

Curated MONDO disease pages that list HNF1B among their top associated genes.
