| Description | RecName: Hepatocyte nuclear factor 4-beta;HNF-4-beta;Alternative Name: Nuclear receptor subfamily 2 group A member 3; |
| Source organism | Xenopus laevis (African clawed frog) |
| Taxonomical Classification | Eukaryota; Metazoa; Chordata; Craniata; Vertebrata; Euteleostomi;Amphibia; Batrachia; Anura; Mesobatrachia; Pipoidea; Pipidae;Xenopodinae; Xenopus; Xenopus. |
| Subcellular location | Nucleus (By similarity) |
| Developmental Stage | Maternal protein which is distributed within an animal-to-vegetal gradient in the embryo. Present from the egg stage onward and throughout the entire development. |
| Similarity | Belongs to the nuclear hormone receptor family. NR2 subfamily. Contains 1 nuclear receptor DNA-binding domain. |
| Tissue Specificity | Expressed in liver, kidney, stomach, intestine, lung, ovary, and testis. Not expressed in fat, muscle and brain. |
| Post translational modification | N/A |
| Function | Transcription factor; binds and activates the promoter for the HNF1-alpha gene. Seems to have a lower DNA binding activity than HNF4-alpha and is a weaker transactivator than the alpha isoform. |
| Protein Length | 446 Amino acids |
