CC -!- FUNCTION: Plays an important role in the differentiation and
CC development of pancreatic islet beta cells. Transcriptional repressor
CC that binds to a common element in the glucagon, insulin and
CC somatostatin promoters. Competes with PAX6 for this same promoter
CC binding site. Isoform 2 appears to be a dominant negative form
CC antagonizing PAX4 transcriptional activity.
CC -!- SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Nucleus.
CC -!- ALTERNATIVE PRODUCTS:
CC Event=Alternative splicing; Named isoforms=3;
CC Name=1; Synonyms=Pax4;
CC IsoId=O43316-1; Sequence=Displayed;
CC Name=2; Synonyms=Pax4V;
CC IsoId=O43316-2; Sequence=VSP_002359, VSP_002360;
CC Name=3;
CC IsoId=O43316-4; Sequence=VSP_036448, VSP_036449;
CC -!- DISEASE: Diabetes mellitus, non-insulin-dependent (NIDDM) [MIM:125853]:
CC A multifactorial disorder of glucose homeostasis caused by a lack of
CC sensitivity to the body's own insulin. Affected individuals usually
CC have an obese body habitus and manifestations of a metabolic syndrome
CC characterized by diabetes, insulin resistance, hypertension and
CC hypertriglyceridemia. The disease results in long-term complications
CC that affect the eyes, kidneys, nerves, and blood vessels.
CC {ECO:0000269|PubMed:11723072}. Note=Disease susceptibility is
CC associated with variants affecting the gene represented in this entry.
CC -!- DISEASE: Diabetes mellitus, insulin-dependent (IDDM) [MIM:222100]: A
CC multifactorial disorder of glucose homeostasis that is characterized by
CC susceptibility to ketoacidosis in the absence of insulin therapy.
CC Clinical features are polydipsia, polyphagia and polyuria which result
CC from hyperglycemia-induced osmotic diuresis and secondary thirst. These
CC derangements result in long-term complications that affect the eyes,
CC kidneys, nerves, and blood vessels. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:15834548}.
CC Note=Disease susceptibility is associated with variants affecting the
CC gene represented in this entry.
CC -!- DISEASE: Diabetes mellitus, ketosis-prone (KPD) [MIM:612227]: An
CC atypical form of diabetes mellitus characterized by an acute initial
CC presentation with severe hyperglycemia and ketosis, as seen in classic
CC type 1 diabetes, but after initiation of insulin therapy, prolonged
CC remission is often possible with cessation of insulin therapy and
CC maintenance of appropriate metabolic control. Metabolic studies show a
CC markedly blunted insulin secretory response to glucose, partially
CC reversible with the improvement of blood glucose control. Variable
CC levels of insulin resistance are observed, especially in obese
CC patients. Pancreatic beta-cell autoimmunity is a rare finding.
CC {ECO:0000269|PubMed:15509590}. Note=Disease susceptibility is
CC associated with variants affecting the gene represented in this entry.
CC -!- DISEASE: Maturity-onset diabetes of the young 9 (MODY9) [MIM:612225]: A
CC form of diabetes that is characterized by an autosomal dominant mode of
CC inheritance, onset in childhood or early adulthood (usually before 25
CC years of age), a primary defect in insulin secretion and frequent
CC insulin-independence at the beginning of the disease.
CC {ECO:0000269|PubMed:17426099}. Note=The disease is caused by variants
CC affecting the gene represented in this entry.
CC -!- SIMILARITY: Belongs to the paired homeobox family. {ECO:0000305}.
CC -!- SEQUENCE CAUTION:
CC Sequence=AC073934; Type=Miscellaneous discrepancy; Note=According to the human genome assembly there is a stop codon in position 349.; Evidence={ECO:0000305};
