General description
Hepatocyte nuclear factor -4 γ (HNF4G) belongs to the nuclear receptor superfamily and is an orphan receptor with significant homology to HNF4α. The gene for HNF-4γ is located on chromosome 8q. HNF-4γ is expressed in small intestine, testis, pancreas and kidney. Studies reveal that the ligand binding domain of HNF-4γ has constitutively bound fatty acids, which are endogenous in origin. HNF-4γ protein is composed of 774 amino acids.

Application
All Prestige Antibodies Powered by Atlas Antibodies are developed and validated by the Human Protein Atlas (HPA) project and as a result, are supported by the most extensive characterization in the industry.
The Human Protein Atlas project can be subdivided into three efforts: Human Tissue Atlas, Cancer Atlas, and Human Cell Atlas. The antibodies that have been generated in support of the Tissue and Cancer Atlas projects have been tested by immunohistochemistry against hundreds of normal and disease tissues and through the recent efforts of the Human Cell Atlas project, many have been characterized by immunofluorescence to map the human proteome not only at the tissue level but now at the subcellular level. These images and the collection of this vast data set can be viewed on the Human Protein Atlas (HPA) site by clicking on the Image Gallery link. We also provide Prestige Antibodies® protocols and other useful information.

Biochem/physiol Actions
Hepatocyte nuclear factor -4 γ (HNF4G) protein forms heterodimers with HNF-4α, and together they are involved in the regulation of metabolism. They also induce the expression of various genes, including cell death-inducing DEF45-like effector b (CIDEB), which regulates lipid metabolism in the liver. In humans, the expression of dihydrodiol dehydrogenase (DD) is regulated by HNF-4γ. DD is responsible for the reduction of various ketone-containing drugs and the oxidation of trans-dihydrodiols of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons.
Features and Benefits
Prestige Antibodies® are highly characterized and extensively validated antibodies with the added benefit of all available characterization data for each target being accessible via the Human Protein Atlas portal linked just below the product name at the top of this page. The uniqueness and low cross-reactivity of the Prestige Antibodies® to other proteins are due to a thorough selection of antigen regions, affinity purification, and stringent selection. Prestige antigen controls are available for every corresponding Prestige Antibody and can be found in the linkage section.
Every Prestige Antibody is tested in the following ways:
Every Prestige Antibody is tested in the following ways:
- IHC tissue array of 44 normal human tissues and 20 of the most common cancer type tissues.
- Protein array of 364 human recombinant protein fragments.

The aim of this study was to investigate whether mutations in hepatocyte nuclear factor (HNF)-4gamma, a transcription factor homologous to HNF-4alpha, contribute to the etiology of early-onset type 2 diabetes. Linkage between diabetes and two polymorphic markers at the HNF-4gamma

Human dihydrodiol dehydrogenase (DD) catalyses the oxidation of trans-dihydrodiols of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons and the reduction of several ketone-containing drugs. About 40-fold interindividual difference in DD activities has been noted. Recently, we found that transcriptional factors, hepatocyte nuclear factor (HNF)-1

Hepatocyte nuclear factor-4α (HNF4α, NR2A1) is a nuclear receptor that has a critical role in hepatocyte differentiation and the maintenance of homeostasis in the adult liver. However, a detailed understanding of native HNF4α in the steady-state remains to be elucidated.
