Biochem/physiol Actions

Twist family bHLH transcription factor 1 (TWIST1) has a role in the determination of cell lineage and differentiation during embryogenesis. During the development of neural crest, it is also involved in modulating cell movement and tissue reorganization. Mutations in the TWIST1 gene have been associated with Saethre-Chotzen syndrome (4) and the protein is also linked to various cancers.

Physical form

Solution in phosphate buffered saline, pH 7.4
