SUBCELLULAR LOCALIZATION     intracellular
intracellular,nucleus
basic FUNCTION
  • represses gene expression of the phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase (PCK2), a key enzyme of gluconeogenesis
  • novel key modulator of PCK2 gene expression regulated by AMPK
  • key modulator of hepatic glucose production regulated by AMPK
  • mediator of transcriptional repression of gluconeogenic genes in response to ATIC

    protein
  • binds to the promoter element of PCK2, a key enzyme of gluconeogenesis

    REGULATION
    Phosphorylated by at Ser(470) by AMPK, and phosphorylation reduces its DNA-binding activity

    diabete  
    combination of the diabetes therapies, pharmacological or nutraceutical induction of ZNF692 gene expression would be expected to reduce blood glucose levels in patients with diabetes
    ANIMAL & CELL MODELS
  • AREBP mice had lower blood glucose levels than WT mice after injection of Atic
