Scientific Background
Hepatocyte nuclear factor 4-alpha encoded by HNF4A is a nuclear transcription factor which binds DNA as a homodimer. Hepatocyte nuclear factor 4-alpha 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.
