BETA2/NeuroD1 is a member of the basic helix-loop-helix (bHLH) transcription factor family, which has been shown to play a major role in development of the nervous system and formation of the endocrine system. Gain-of-function studies have indicated that BETA2/NeuroD1 is important for the neurogenesis of Xenopus embryos and several neurogenic cell lines. Disruption of the gene encoding BETA2/NeuroD1 leads to severe abnormalities of the developing mouse central nervous system as well as the… CONTINUE READING
