| Short Name | TF_DEAF-1 |
| description | Deformed epidermal autoregulatory factor-1 (DEAF-1) was first isolated in Drosophila melanogaster as a novel DNA-binding protein []. Since then, several orthologues in mammals have been identified. In Drosophila, DEAF-1 plays an important role in embryonic development, particularly in the segmentation stage following cuticle secretion. In mammals it regulates different processes, including epithelial cell proliferation and side-branching in the mammary gland []and it is required for neural tube closure and skeletal patterning []. |
