In humans, MITF can function as a melanoma oncogene (4) and mutations in the corresponding gene are associated with Waardenburg syndrome type 2, an auditory-pigmentary syndrome characterized by developmental defects in cells derived from neural crest (5). At least 12 isoforms of MITF have been identified, which exhibit differential patterns of expression among cell and tissue types (6).\n\u003cb\u003eAlternate Names\u003c\/b\u003e\nBHLHE32; Class E basic helix-loop-helix protein 32; CMM8; COMMAD; homolog of mouse microphthalmia; melanocyte inducing transcription factor; melanogenesis associated transcription factor; MI; microphtalmia-associated transcription factor; Microphthalmia-associated transcription factor; microphthalmia-associated transcription factor-M transcript; MITF; WS2; WS2A\n\n\u003cb\u003eSpecification\u003c\/b\u003e\n\nREACTIVITY: H\nSENSITIVITY: Endogenous\nSource\/Isotype: Mouse IgG1 kappa","brand":"CST","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46800269967529,"sku":"60770T","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/iright.com\/products\/cst-60770t","provider":"Iright","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
