Trans-acting T-cell-specific transcription factor (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GATA3)
It belongs to the GATA family of Transcription factors. It regulates luminal epithelial cell differentiation in the mammary gland. The protein contains two GATA-type zinc fingers and is an important regulator of T cell development and plays an important role in endothelial cell biology.

It is highly coexpressed with FOXA1 and serves as negative predictor of basal subtype and ERBB2 subtype. It is also considered a strong predictor of Taxane and Platin salts insensitivity.
Insulin has been shown in experimental models to downregulate expression of GATA3 by causing overexpression of T-bet, resulting in resistance to endocrine therapy.
