Abstract excerpt
DEAF-1 is an important transcriptional regulator that is required for embryonic development and is linked to clinical depression and suicidal behavior in humans. It comprises various structural domains, including a SAND domain that mediates DNA binding and a MYND domain, a cysteine-rich module organized in a Cys(4)-Cys(2)-His-Cys (C4-C2HC) tandem zinc binding motif. DEAF-1 transcription regulation activity is...
