Journal ArticleDOI

Protein kinase B/Akt-mediated phosphorylation promotes nuclear exclusion of the winged helix transcription factor FKHR1.

TL;DR: It is shown that the activation of phosphatidylinositol 3 (PI3) kinase by extracellular growth factors induces phosphorylation, nuclear export, and transcriptional inactivation of FKHR1, a member of the FK HR subclass of the forkhead family of transcription factors.
Journal ArticleDOI

The Forkhead Transcription Factor Foxo1 Regulates Adipocyte Differentiation

TL;DR: It is proposed that Foxo1 plays an important role in the integration of hormone-activated signaling pathways with the complex transcriptional cascade that promotes adipocyte differentiation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Disruption of forkhead transcription factor (FOXO) family members in mice reveals their functional diversification

TL;DR: It is shown that the physiological roles of Foxo genes are functionally diverse in mammals, and their in vivo physiological roles are largely unknown.
