Abstract excerpt

Microphthalmia-associated transcription factor (Mitf) regulates the differentiation of melanocytes, optic cup-derived retinal pigment epithelium (RPE), and some types of bone marrow-derived cells. Mitf consists of at least five isoforms with different N-termini, each of which is encoded by a separate exon 1. Here we identified a novel isoform, termed mouse Mitf-D/human MITF-D, that is expressed in RPE,...
