PTF1A BHLHA29 PTF1P48 Pancreas transcription factor 1 subunit alpha Class A basic helix-loop-helix protein 29 Pancreas-specific transcription factor 1a bHLH transcription factor p48 p48 DNA-binding subunit of transcription factor PTF1
Molecular Weight(MW)
34970 Da
Function
Transcriptional activator. Binds to the E-box consensus sequence 5'-CANNTG-3'. Plays an important role in determining whether cells allocated to the pancreatic buds continue towards pancreatic organogenesis or revert back to duodenal fates. May be involved in the maintenance of exocrine pancreas-specific gene expression including ELA1 and amylase. Required for the formation of pancreatic acinar and ductal cells (By similarity). Plays an important role in cerebellar development
Tissue Specificity
Pancreas-specific (at protein level). Loss of expression is seen in ductal type pancreas cancers
Cellular Localization
Nucleus (By similarity). Cytoplasm (By similarity). Note=In chronic pancreatitis associated with pancreas cancer preferentially accumulates in the cytoplasm of acinar/ductular complexes. In the cytoplasm loses its ability to form the PTF1 complex (By similarity)
