Meis transcription factors regulate cardiac conduction system development and adult function.

Abstract excerpt

AIMS: The cardiac conduction system (CCS) is progressively specified during development by interactions among a discrete number of transcription factors (TFs) that ensure its proper patterning and the emergence of its functional properties. Meis genes encode homeodomain TFs with multiple roles in mammalian development. In humans, Meis genes associate with congenital cardiac malformations and alterations of...
