This gene encodes a member of the homeodomain-containing superfamily of transcription factors.

hnf1b and fzd4 have been identified as RA-induced genes responsible for pancreas specification.
hnf1b expressed in entire endoderm at Stage 10.5, and is required for pancreas development.
overexpression of hnf1b leads to an expansion of pancreas progentior field at NF stage 28 to 32.
