COMMAD

Chr 3AR

melanocyte inducing transcription factor

Also known as: CMM8, COMMAD, MI, MITF-A, WS2, WS2A, bHLHe32

The encoded protein is a transcription factor containing basic helix-loop-helix and leucine zipper domains that regulates melanocyte development and controls pigment cell-specific transcription of melanogenesis enzyme genes. Mutations cause COMMAD syndrome, which is inherited in an autosomal recessive pattern. This gene is also associated with auditory-pigmentary features affecting both hearing and pigmentation.
