Gene

Mitf

Species
Rattus norvegicus
Symbol
Mitf
Name
melanocyte inducing transcription factor
Synonyms
  • melanogenesis associated transcription factor
  • microphthalmia-associated transcription factor
Biotype
protein coding gene
Automated Description
Predicted to enable several functions, including DNA-binding transcription activator activity, RNA polymerase II-specific; E-box binding activity; and protein dimerization activity. Involved in several processes, including cellular response to zinc ion starvation; osteoclast differentiation; and response to ethanol. Predicted to be located in lysosomal membrane. Predicted to be part of protein-containing complex. Predicted to be active in nucleus. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Tietz syndrome; Tietze's syndrome; Waardenburg syndrome; Waardenburg syndrome type 2A; and familial melanoma. Orthologous to human MITF (melanocyte inducing transcription factor).
