Krueppel-like factor 11 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the KLF11 gene.[5][6][7]

KLF11 is a mesoderm derived,

maturity-onset diabetes of the young type 7. These types of diabetes are caused by KLF11 interacting with co-repressors in the pancreatic islet beta cells. KLF11 has recently been shown to be involved in endometriosis
since it regulated the expression of extracellular matrix genes. Its absence in extracellular matrix genes created a more fibrogenic response by the tissue. This was proved by creating a “knockout” model. The experiment showed that the absence of KLF11 showed higher amounts of fibrosis indicating that it prevents the growth of endometriotic lesions and inhibits pathological scarring.

Interactions

KLF11 has been shown to

interact with SIN3A.[11][12]
