HNF1 homeobox B (hepatocyte nuclear factor 1 homeobox B), also known as HNF1B or transcription factor 2 (TCF2), is a human gene.

Function

[edit]

HNF1B encodes hepatocyte nuclear factor 1-beta, a protein of the homeobox-containing basic helix-turn-helix family. The HNF1B protein is believed to form heterodimers with another member of this transcription factor family, HNF1A; depending on the HNF1B isoform, the result may be to activate or inhibit transcription of target genes. Deficiency of HNF1B cause abnormal maternal-Zygote transition and early embryogenesis failure.[5][6] Mutation of HNF1B that disrupts normal function has been identified as the cause of MODY 5 (Maturity-Onset of Diabetes, Type 5). A third human transcript variant is believed to exist based on such a variant in the rat: however, to date such an mRNA species has not been isolated.[7]

  1. Well, that’s interesting to know that Psilotum nudum are known as whisk ferns. Psilotum nudum is the commoner species of the two. While the P. flaccidum is a rare species and is found in the tropical islands. Both the species are usually epiphytic in habit and grow upon tree ferns. These species may also be terrestrial and grow in humus or in the crevices of the rocks.
