KLF5 - KLF transcription factor 5 Gene
Also Known as CKLF; IKLF; BTEB2
Species: Homo sapiens
About KLF5
This gene has 5 transcripts (splice variants), 265 orthologues and 22 paralogues. Broad expression in skin (RPKM 92.1), esophagus (RPKM 91.6) and 14 other tissues.
Summary
This gene encodes a member of the Kruppel-like factor subfamily of zinc finger proteins. The encoded protein is a transcriptional activator that binds directly to a specific recognition motif in the promoters of target genes. This protein acts downstream of multiple different signaling pathways and is regulated by post-translational modification. It may participate in both promoting and suppressing cell proliferation. Expression of this gene may be changed in a variety of different cancers and in Cardiovascular Disease. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Nov 2013]
