Biological function summary
The LEF1 transcription factor plays a significant role in cellular processes such as cell differentiation proliferation and embryonic development. As part of the Wnt signaling complex it interacts with β-catenin to regulate target gene expression. Activation of Wnt signaling by LEF1 can lead to changes in the cellular structure and function necessary for tissue development and regeneration. LEF1 also contributes to maintaining the pluripotency of stem cells by modulating gene networks critical for stem cell properties.
Pathways
The LEF1 protein is essential in Wnt/β-catenin signaling and influences the Hedgehog pathway. LEF1 pairs with β-catenin to drive the transcription of Wnt target genes involved in cell cycle and differentiation. These pathways maintain stem cell populations and regulate development. LEF1's function in these pathways links it closely to other factors like TCF7L2 and GLI family proteins which also play vital roles within these signaling cascades.

Function
Transcription factor that binds DNA in a sequence-specific manner (PubMed : 2010090). Participates in the Wnt signaling pathway (By similarity). Activates transcription of target genes in the presence of CTNNB1 and EP300 (By similarity). PIAG antagonizes both Wnt-dependent and Wnt-independent activation by LEF1 (By similarity). TLE1, TLE2, TLE3 and TLE4 repress transactivation mediated by LEF1 and CTNNB1 (PubMed : 11266540). Regulates T-cell receptor alpha enhancer function (PubMed : 19653274). Required for IL17A expressing gamma-delta T-cell maturation and development, via binding to regulator loci of BLK to modulate expression (By similarity). Acts as a positive regulator of odontoblast differentiation during mesenchymal tooth germ formation, expression is repressed during the bell stage by MSX1-mediated inhibition of CTNNB1 signaling (By similarity). May play a role in hair cell differentiation and follicle morphogenesis (By similarity).. Isoform 1. Transcriptionally activates MYC and CCND1 expression and enhances proliferation of pancreatic tumor cells.. Isoform 3. Lacks the CTNNB1 interaction domain and may therefore be an antagonist for Wnt signaling.. Isoform 5. Transcriptionally activates the fibronectin promoter, binds to and represses transcription from the E-cadherin promoter in a CTNNB1-independent manner, and is involved in reducing cellular aggregation and increasing cell migration of pancreatic cancer cells.
Sequence similarities
Belongs to the TCF/LEF family.
Post-translational modifications
Phosphorylated at Thr-155 and/or Ser-166 by NLK. Phosphorylation by NLK at these sites represses LEF1-mediated transcriptional activation of target genes of the canonical Wnt signaling pathway.
