[Novel approaches to the background of developmental abnormalities: clinical genetics of transcription factors].

Abstract excerpt

Transcription factors are highly conserved proteins with preserved structure and function for up to a hundred million years. They regulate protein formation and function by binding to DNA and controlling gene expression. Mutations are generally lethal, but can play role in endocrine disorders and tumor genesis. They are necessary for cell growth, proliferation, differentiation and are required in tissue and organ...
