RT beta cells.";
RL Cell Rep. 9:2206-2218(2014).
CC -!- FUNCTION: Transcription factor required to direct islet cell
CC differentiation during endocrine pancreas development. Specifically
CC required for the differentiation of 4 of the 5 islet cell types and for
CC the production of insulin (PubMed:20148032, PubMed:25497100). Not
CC required for pancreatic PP (polypeptide-producing) cells
CC differentiation. Acts downstream of NEUROG3 and regulates the
CC transcription factors involved in beta-cell maturation and function,
CC thereby restricting the expression of the beta-cell differentiation and
CC specification genes, and thus the beta-cell fate choice. Activates
CC transcription by forming a heterodimer with RFX3 and binding to the X-
CC box in the promoter of target genes (PubMed:20148032). Involved in
CC glucose-stimulated insulin secretion by promoting insulin and L-type
CC calcium channel gene transcription (PubMed:25497100).
