{"symbol":"EDF1","synonyms":["MBF1","CFAP280","EDF-1"],"name":"endothelial differentiation-related factor 1","description":"This gene encodes a protein that may regulate endothelial cell differentiation, lipid metabolism, and hormone-induced cardiomyocyte hypertrophy. The encoded protein has also been found to act as a transcriptional coactivator by interconnecting the general transcription factor TATA element-binding protein (TBP) and gene-specific activators. Alternate splicing results in multiple transcript variants.
