CC -!- FUNCTION: Transcription factor which binds to specific A/T-rich DNA
CC sequences in the promoter regions of a number of genes. Required for
CC the development of insulin-producing beta cells in the islets of
CC Langerhans at the secondary transition (PubMed:11076772). Involved in
CC transcriptional regulation of the insulin gene. Together with NKX2-2
CC and IRX3, restricts the generation of motor neurons to the appropriate
CC region of the neural tube. Belongs to the class II proteins of neuronal
CC progenitor factors, which are induced by SHH signals.
CC {ECO:0000269|PubMed:10830170, ECO:0000269|PubMed:11076772}.
CC -!- SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Nucleus {ECO:0000269|PubMed:11076772}.
CC -!- TISSUE SPECIFICITY: Expressed by neuronal progenitor cells in discrete
CC domains of the ventral neural tube (PubMed:10830170). In the pancreas,
CC expressed exclusively in insulin-producing beta cells of the islets of
CC Langerhans (at protein level) (PubMed:11076772).
CC {ECO:0000269|PubMed:10830170, ECO:0000269|PubMed:11076772}.
CC -!- DEVELOPMENTAL STAGE: In the developing pancreas, detected as early as
CC 10.5 dpc in the majority of epithelial cells. This broad expression
CC pattern persists through 12.5 dpc. Around 13.5 dpc, with the start of
CC the secondary transition, becomes restricted and by 15.5 dpc,
CC exclusively detected in insulin-expressing beta cells and in some
CC scattered ductal and periductal cells (at protein level).
CC {ECO:0000269|PubMed:11076772}.
CC -!- DOMAIN: The C-terminal domain contributes to sequence-specific DNA-
CC binding.
CC -!- DISRUPTION PHENOTYPE: Embryonic development of mutant mice is normal
CC until 13.5 dpc. At this stage, the normal expansion of pancreatic beta
CC cells does not occur. At 18.5 dpc, the numbers of beta cells is
CC dramatically decreased and the pancreatic insulin content is only 2% of
CC wild-type. No effect on the production of other pancreatic hormones,
CC including glucagon, somatostatin and pancreatic polypeptide (PP)
CC (PubMed:11076772). Simultaneous knockout of NKX6-1 and NKX2-2 results
CC in the complete absence of insulin-expressing cells in the pancreas
CC throughout development, and instead accumulation of incompletely
CC differentiated beta cells, a phenotype not distinguable from the single
CC NKX2-2 knockout (PubMed:11076772). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:11076772}.
