Target intelligence / Profile preview

Myelin transcription factor 1 kinase (Myt1)

Target
Myt1
Molecular classification
Transcription factor, Serine/threonine-protein kinase, DNA-binding protein, Enzyme
01

Overview

Myt1 is a neural-specific protein with dual functions as a transcription factor and a kinase. It regulates myelin gene expression and inhibits Cdk1 to control cell cycle progression. Its roles in neurodevelopment and cell cycle make it a potential therapeutic target for neurodevelopmental disorders, demyelinating diseases, and cancer.
