KLF5

Protein-coding gene in the species Homo sapiens


Krueppel-like factor 5 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the KLF5 gene.[5][6]

Quick Facts Available structures, PDB ...

Function

This gene encodes a member of the Kruppel-like factor subfamily of zinc finger proteins. Since the protein localizes to the nucleus and binds the epidermal growth factor response element, it is thought to be a transcription factor.[6]

Interactions

KLF5 has been shown to interact with Protein SET.[7]

Clinical significance

KLF5 expression has been linked to higher survival rates for lung cancer patients.[8]
