KLF15 Krüppel-like factor 15 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the ''KLF15'' gene in the Krüppel-like factor family. Its former designation KKLF stands for kidney-enriched Krüppel-like factor. Expression Activated glucocorticoid recepto ...
is a strong and direct activator of BMPER expression which is inhibited by SP1. BMPER is inhibited by
endothelin-1 Endothelin 1 (ET-1), also known as preproendothelin-1 (PPET1), is a potent Vasoconstriction, vasoconstrictor peptide produced by vascular endothelium, endothelial cells. The protein encoded by this gene ''EDN1'' is proteolysis, proteolytically pr ...
, which may be mediated by endothelin inhibition of KLF15.
