Krüppel-like factor 14, also known as basic transcription element-binding protein 5 (BTEB5) is a protein that in humans is encoded by the KLF14 gene. The corresponding Klf14 mouse gene is known as Sp6.
KLF14 is a member of the Krüppel-like factor family of transcription factors. It regulates the transcription of various genes, including TGFβRII (the type II receptor for TGFβ). KLF14 is expressed in many tissues, lacks introns, and is subject to parent-specific expression.
KLF14 appears to be a master regulator of gene expression in adipose tissue.
