Transcription factor; can act both as activator and as repressor. Binds the 5'-CACCC-3' core sequence. Binds to the promoter region of its own gene and can activate its own transcription. Regulates the expression of key transcription factors during embryonic development. Plays an important role in maintaining embryonic stem cells, and in preventing their differentiation. Required for establishing the barrier function of the skin and for postnatal maturation and maintenance of the ocular surface. Involved in the differentiation of epithelial cells and may also function in skeletal and kidney development. Contributes to the down-regulation of p53/TP53 transcription.

KLF4 also known as Kruppel-like factor 4 acts as a transcription factor involved in the regulation of gene expression. It has a molecular weight of approximately 55-60 kDa. Researchers often find KLF4 expressed in epithelial tissues such as the skin and gastrointestinal tract. It regulates cellular processes like differentiation proliferation and apoptosis playing a role in maintaining homeostasis and cell identity.
KLF4 impacts cell differentiation and proliferation through its role as a transcription factor. It functions within several cellular complexes and interacts with other transcription factors to modulate gene expression. KLF4 regulates stem cell maintenance by influencing gene networks involved in self-renewal and differentiation contributing particularly to pluripotency in embryonic stem cells.
The transcriptional activity of KLF4 integrates into key signaling pathways like the Wnt/β-catenin and Notch pathways. Within the Wnt/β-catenin pathway KLF4 may cooperate with β-catenin and TCF/LEF transcription factors to modulate gene targets. Similarly in the Notch signaling pathway KLF4 interacts with pathway components to influence cell fate decisions. These interactions highlight KLF4's central role in orchestrating complex signaling networks.
Mutations or dysregulated expression of KLF4 associates with various conditions including colorectal cancer and skin disorders like atopic dermatitis. In colorectal cancer KLF4 often interacts with other oncogenes and tumor suppressor proteins such as p53 to influence tumorigenesis. In skin disorders altered KLF4 expression can impact skin barrier function and inflammatory responses connecting it with proteins involved in immune response regulation.

Immunohistochemical analysis of paraffin-embedded human colon tissue labeling KLF4 with ab106629 at 2 µg/mL. Tissue was fixed with formaldehyde and blocked with 10% serum for 1 h at RT; antigen retrieval was by heat mediation with a citrate buffer (pH 6). Samples were incubated with primary antibody overnight at 4°C. A goat anti-rabbit IgG H&L (HRP) at 1/250 was used as secondary. Counter stained with Hematoxylin.
