basic FUNCTION
  • involved in peripheral nervous system development (i.e enteric ganglia), and in the development of correct intestinal innervation
  • transcription factors crucial in the development of neural-crest-derived cells, leading to ANS (autonomic nervous system) specific neuronal lineages
  • CELLULAR PROCESS nucleotide, transcription
