Target Details for MITF

Target: MITF (Microphthalmia-Associated Transcription Factor (MITF))

Alternative Name: MITF

Background:

Synonyms: melanocyte inducing transcription factor , CMM8 , COMMAD , MI , WS2 , WS2A , bHLHe32

Background: This gene encodes a transcription factor that contains both basic helix-loop-helix and leucine zipper structural features. It regulates the differentiation and development of melanocytes retinal pigment epithelium and is also responsible for pigment cell-specific transcription of the melanogenesis enzyme genes. Heterozygous mutations in the this gene cause auditory-pigmentary syndromes, such as Waardenburg syndrome type 2 and Tietz syndrome. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been identified. [provided by RefSeq]
