basic FUNCTION
  • acting as a transcriptional regulator of insulin gene
  • inhibiting proliferation of intestinal epithelial cells
  • regulating intestine-specific genes involved in differentiation
  • involved in the regulation of specific intestinal promoters, including intestinal ALP, sucrase-isomaltase, intestinal phospholipase A/lysophospholipase (IPAL)
  • may be an important factor in the process toward malignant transformation during the first steps of tumorigenesis
  • could play a role in the terminal differentiation of the intestine
  • inducing expression of the intestinal alkaline phosphatase gene
  • inhibiting beta-catenin/T-cell factor transcriptional activity
  • dispensable for intestinal development and that its overexpression could increase malignancy in early stages of tumourigenesis
  • enhanced the expression of PPARA gene, a master transcriptional regulator of intestinal differentiation(Park 2009)
  • with CDX2, regulate gut development and differentiation of intestinal epithelial cells
  • CDX1 and CDX2 binds to the SLC5A8 promoter, might therefore regulate the uptake of these substances in the colon
  • homeodomain transcription factor with well-established roles in anteroposterior patterning
  • pivotal role for Cdx1 function upstream of PTK7 and neural tube closure in vertebrates

    small molecule
    protein
  • interacting with the TATA-box binding protein (TBP) on the promoter of the glucose-6-phosphatase (G6Pase) gene, via its homeodomain
  • interacting with CEBPA (capable of enhancing CDX1-mediated transactivation of the PPARG via direct protein interaction depending on the combination of a variety of cellular signals)
  • CDX transcription factors bind to the promoter region of SLC5A8 and transactivate SLC5A8 reporter constructs
  • interacting with MAFB (one of the earliest direct targets of CDX1 that plays a direct role in early hindbrain patterning
