Myelin transcription factor 1 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the MYT1 gene.^[5][6][7]

Function[edit]

The protein encoded by this gene is a member of a family of neural specific, zinc finger-containing DNA-binding proteins. The protein binds to the promoter regions of proteolipid proteins of the central nervous system and plays a role in the developing nervous system.^[7]
