The product of NFAT5（nuclear factor of activated T-cells 5） is a member of the nuclear factors of activated T cells family of transcription factors. Proteins belonging to this family play a central role in inducible gene transcription during the immune response. This protein regulates gene expression induced by osmotic stress in mammalian cells. Unlike monomeric members of this protein family, this protein exists as a homodimer and forms stable dimers with DNA elements. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for NFAT5.蛋白别名为：Nuclear factor of activated T-cells 5 (NF-AT5) (T-cell transcription factor NFAT5) (Tonicity-responsive enhancer-binding protein) (TonE-binding protein) (TonEBP);基因ID为：10725；蛋白质ID:O94916
