KLF6

Entrez Summary: This gene encodes a member of the Kruppel-like family of transcription factors. The zinc finger protein is a transcriptional activator, and functions as a tumor suppressor. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene, some of which are implicated in carcinogenesis. [provided by RefSeq, May 2009].
UniProt Summary: Transcriptional activator (By similarity). Binds a GC box motif. Could play a role in B-cell growth and development. {ECO:0000250}.
