Function
PBX1_MOUSE Plays a role in the cAMP-dependent regulation of CYP17 gene expression via its cAMP-regulatory sequence (CRS1) 5'-ATCAATCAA-3'. Acts as a transcriptional activator of PF4 in complex with MEIS1. May have a role in steroidogenesis and, subsequently, sexual development and differentiation. Isoform PBX1b as part of a PDX1:PBX1b:MEIS2b complex in pancreatic acinar cells is involved in the transcriptional activation of the ELA1 enhancer; the complex binds to the enhancer B element and cooperates with the transcription factor 1 complex (PTF1) bound to the enhancer A element. Probably in complex with MEIS2, is involved in transcriptional regulation by KLF4.
