Summary
Summary of gene provided in NCBI Entrez Gene.
|
The protein encoded by this gene is a member of a family of neural specific, zinc finger-containing DNA-binding proteins. The protein binds to the promoter regions of proteolipid proteins of the central nervous system and plays a role in the developing ne |

Protein name |
Myelin transcription factor 1 (MyT1) (Myelin transcription factor I) (MyTI) (PLPB1) (Proteolipid protein-binding protein) |
Protein function |
Binds to the promoter region of genes encoding proteolipid proteins of the central nervous system. May play a role in the development of neurons and oligodendroglia in the CNS. May regulate a critical transition point in oligodendrocyte lineage |
