Protein Coding Gene : Foxa1 forkhead box A1

Primary Identifier  MGI:1347472 Organism  mouse, laboratory
Chromosome  12 NCBI Gene Number  15375
Mgi Type  protein coding gene
description  FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 7.1.0)

Enables DNA-binding transcription factor activity; RNA polymerase II cis-regulatory region sequence-specific DNA binding activity; and chromatin binding activity. Involved in chromatin remodeling. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including lung development; prostate gland development; and regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II. Located in microvillus and nucleus. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; central nervous system; genitourinary system; respiratory system; and sensory organ. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in breast cancer; gastrointestinal system cancer (multiple); and lung cancer (multiple). Orthologous to human FOXA1 (forkhead box A1).
PHENOTYPE: Homozygotes for targeted null mutations exhibit abnormal feeding, hypoglycemia, impaired glucagon secretion, hypotryglyceridemia, wasting, and lethality between postnatal days 2 and 14. [provided by MGI curators]
