Function
Transcription factor that is involved in embryonic development, establishment of tissue-specific gene expression and regulation of gene expression in differentiated tissues. Is thought to act as a 'pioneer' factor opening the compacted chromatin for other proteins through interactions with nucleosomal core histones and thereby replacing linker histones at target enhancer and/or promoter sites. Binds DNA with the consensus sequence 5'-[AC]A[AT]T[AG]TT[GT][AG][CT]T[CT]-3' (By similarity). Proposed to play a role in translating the epigenetic signatures into cell type-specific enhancer-driven transcriptional programs. Its differential recruitment to chromatin is dependent on distribution of histone H3 methylated at 'Lys-5' (H3K4me2) in estrogen-regulated genes. Involved in the development of multiple endoderm-derived organ systems such as liver, pancreas, lung and prostate; FOXA1 and FOXA2 seem to have at least in part redundant roles (By similarity). Modulates the transcriptional activity of nuclear hormone receptors. Is involved in ESR1-mediated transcription; required for ESR1 binding to the NKX2-1 promoter in breast cancer cells; binds to the RPRM promoter and is required for the estrogen-induced repression of RPRM. Involved in regulation of apoptosis by inhibiting the expression of BCL2. Involved in cell cycle regulation by activating expression of CDKN1B, alone or in conjunction with BRCA1. Originally described as a transcription activator for a number of liver genes such as AFP, albumin, tyrosine aminotransferase, PEPCK, etc. Interacts with the cis-acting regulatory regions of these genes. Involved in glucose homeostasis.

- Activity summary
FOXA1 also known as Forkhead Box A1 is a transcription factor with a molecular weight of about 49 kDa. It plays a role by binding to specific DNA sequences influencing the expression of genes involved in various cellular processes. This protein is expressed in tissues like liver lungs and prostate. Researchers also refer to FOXA1 as HNF-3α emphasizing its importance in transcription regulation.
- Biological function summary
FOXA1 influences the transcriptional control of genes essential for organ development and metabolic regulation. It acts as a pioneer factor opening chromatin structure to enable access for other transcription factors. FOXA1 integrates into complexes that involve histone modification affecting the chromatin state and transcription of target genes. This function is necessary for the proper differentiation and function of several tissues.
- Pathways
FOXA1 participates significantly in the androgen receptor signaling pathway and the estrogen receptor signaling pathway. It interacts closely with androgen receptor facilitating the expression of genes that influence cell growth and proliferation. The involvement of FOXA1 in these pathways highlights its critical role in pathways that regulate hormone-responsive cancers and metabolic processes.
- Associated diseases and disorders
FOXA1 shows a strong association with cancers such as prostate cancer and breast cancer. FOXA1's interaction with the androgen receptor links it to prostate cancer progression while its involvement with the estrogen receptor correlates with breast cancer development. Aberrations in its expression or function can disrupt these pathways emphasizing the importance of FOXA1 in cancer biology and its potential as a therapeutic target.
