TWIST1 homodimers and heterodimers orchestrate lineage-specific differentiation

2019-06-16

Abstract excerpt

The extensive array of bHLH transcription factors and their combinations as dimers underpin the diversity of molecular function required for cell type specification during embryogenesis. The bHLH factor TWIST1 plays pleiotropic roles during development. However, which combinations of TWIST1 dimers are involved and what impact each dimer imposes on the gene regulation network controlled by TWIST1 remain elusive. In...
