MITF-A (CMV) Lentivirus
This lentivirus expresses human MITF-A under the control of the CMV promoter.
MITF-A is an isoform of MITF (microphthalmia-associated transcription factor), a transcription factor that contains both basic helix-loop-helix and leucine zipper structural features. It regulates the differentiation and development of melanocytes retinal pigment epithelium and is also responsible for pigment cell-specific transcription of the melanogenesis enzyme genes. Heterozygous mutations in the this gene cause auditory-pigmentary syndromes, such as Waardenburg syndrome type 2 and Tietz syndrome.
