Protein-coding gene in the species Homo sapiens
Forkhead box O6 is aprotein that in humans is encoded by the FOXO6gene .[ 5]
FoxO6 is expressed in the liver, skeletal muscle, and thehippocampus of the brain.[ 6] gluconeogenesis in the fasted state, butinsulin blocks Fox06 after feeding.[ 6] insulin resistance , insulin fails to block FoxO6, resulting in continued gluconeogenesis even after feeding.[ 6]
