Novel mechanisms of MITF regulation identified in a mouse suppressor screen
MITF, a basic Helix-Loop-Helix Zipper (bHLHZip) transcription factor, plays vital roles in melanocyte development and functions as an oncogene. We perform a genetic screen for suppressors of the Mitf-associated pigmentation phenotype in mice and identify

Mitf Induction by RANKL Is Critical for Osteoclastogenesis
Microphthalmia-associated transcription factor (Mitf) regulates the development and function of several cell lineages, including osteoclasts. In this report, we identified a novel mechanism by which RANKL regulates osteoclastogenesis via induction of ...

The activity of the M isoform of microphthalmia-associated transcription factor (MITF-M) has been attributed to regulation of differentiation, proliferation, survival and senescence of melanoma cells. MITF expression was shown to be antagonized by the activation of transcription factor NF-κB.

TYR promoter transactivation by MITF and LEF-1.
A, B Synergism between MITF and LEF-1 and the effect of β-catenin on TYR promoter determined by luciferase activity assay. UACC903 cells were transfected with the TYR promoter-reporter plasmid and the indicated effector plasmid(s). A luciferase assay was

MITF regulates autophagy and extracellular vesicle cargo in gastrointestinal stromal tumors
The role of Microphthalmia-associated Transcription Factor (MITF) in gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs) remains unclear, although previous studies suggest it contributes to tumor growth regulation.

TRIM63 Overexpression in FISH-Negative MiTF Family Altered Renal Cell Carcinoma (MiTF RCC)
TFE3 and TFEB break-apart fluorescent in situ hybridization (FISH) assays are the "gold standard" for diagnostic confirmation of microphthalmia-associated transcription factor (MiTF) family-altered renal cell carcinoma (MiTF RCC), which includes TFE3-rearranged RCC and TFEB-altered RCC.

Antagonistic roles for MITF and TFE3 in melanoma plasticity
Summary Melanoma cells have the ability to switch from a melanocytic and proliferative state to a mesenchymal and invasive state and back again. This plasticity drives intra-tumoral heterogeneity, progression, and therapeutic resistance.

MITF er basic helix-loop-helix lúsín-zipper umritunarþáttur sem myndar tvenndir við sjálft sig og skyld prótein og gegnir lykilhlutverki í litfrumum þar sem það stýrir tjáningu melaníns í húðinni.

MITF links maturation and quiescence
The coordination of cell differentiation with exit from the cell division cycle may help to limit organ size and prevent tumor formation. But the mechanism that links these two processes is unknown for most cell types. On page 35, Loercher et al. show that, in melanocytes, the link is the MITF transcription factor.
