Primary Antibody supplied by Boster Bio Read more ›

Product Description
Hepatocyte nuclear factor 4 alpha (HNF4A), also known as NR2A1, is a nuclear receptor that in humans is encoded by the HNF4A gene. It is mapped to 20q13.12. HNF4A is a nuclear transcription factor that binds DNA as a homodimer. The encoded protein controls the expression of several genes, including hepatocyte nuclear factor 1 alpha, a transcription factor which regulates the expression of several hepatic genes. This gene plays a role in development of the liver, kidney, and intestines. HNF4A is required for the PXR and CAR-mediated transcriptional activation of CYP3A4. This gene also plays a pivotal role in the expression and synthesis of SHBG, an important glycoprotein made primarily in the liver, which in addition to lowering insulin-resistance also serves in reducing levels of free Oestrogen as-well as prolonging the half-life of Testosterone.
