Winged-helix transcription factors

Jump to: navigation, search

Consisting of about 110 amino acids, the domain in winged-helix transcription factors has four helices and a two-strand beta-sheet.

These proteins are classified into 17 families called FoxA-FoxQ.

Mutations in FoxP proteins are implicated in human autoimmune diseases.
