SAM pointed domain-containing Ets transcription factor is a protein that in humans is encoded by the SPDEF gene.^[1][2][3]

PDEF is an ETS transcription factor expressed in prostate epithelial cells. It acts as an androgen-independent transactivator of PSA (MIM 176820) expression.[supplied by OMIM]^[3]

Interactions

SPDEF has been shown to interact with NKX3-1.^[4]

The Protein Kinase CK2 has been shown to control the stability of PDEF. ^[5]
