Krueppel-like factors (KLFs) comprise a family of evolutionarily conserved zinc finger-containing transcription factors with diverse regulatory functions in cell growth, proliferation, differentiation and embryogenesis. Individual members of the Sp1-like/KLF family can function either as activators or repressors, depending on which promoter they bind and the coregulators with which they interact. KLF6, also designated Zf9 or CPBP (core promoter-binding protein), and KLF3 are Kr
