Protein
Krueppel-like factor 9
Function
Transcription factor that binds to GC box promoter elements. Selectively activates mRNA synthesis from genes containing tandem repeats of GC boxes but represses genes with a single GC box. Acts as an epidermal circadian transcription factor regulating keratinocyte proliferation (PubMed:22711835).
Similarity
Belongs to the Sp1 C2H2-type zinc-finger protein family.
