Protein Structure

UniProt Annotation

Function

Acts as a transcriptional regulator. Together with NKX2- 2, initiates transcriptional activation of NEUROD1. Involved in neurogenesis. Also required for the specification of a common precursor of the 4 pancreatic endocrine cell types (By similarity). {ECO:0000250}.

Subcellular Localization

Nucleus {ECO:0000255PROSITE- ProRule:PRU00981}.

Disease Associations

Diarrhea 4, malabsorptive, congenital (DIAR4) [MIM:610370]: A disease characterized by severe, life-threatening watery diarrhea associated with generalized malabsorption and a paucity of enteroendocrine cells. {ECO:0000269PubMed:16855267}. Note=The disease is caused by mutations affecting the gene represented in this entry.
