Pleiomorphic Adenoma-Like Protein-1 Definition

Widely expressed by human PLAGL1 Gene (Krueppel Family), 411-aa 45-kDa DNA-binding transcriptional activator Pleomorphic Adenoma-Like Protein 1 contains 7 C2H2-type zinc fingers and inhibits cell proliferation through induction of the p53 apoptosis and cell cycle arrest pathways. PLAGL1 also regulates pituitary adenylate cyclase-activating polypeptide type 1 receptor, a potent insulin secretagogue and mediator of autocrine control of insulin secretion in the pancreatic islets. (NCI)
