| | | Automated_description | Predicted to enable DNA-binding transcription factor activity, RNA polymerase II-specific and RNA polymerase II transcription regulatory region sequence-specific DNA binding activity. Involved in mesodermal cell fate specification; positive regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II; and vulval cell fate specification. Predicted to be located in nucleus. Expressed in several structures, including M.dla; M.dra; M.vla; body wall muscle cell from M lineage; and enteric muscle. Used to study Saethre-Chotzen syndrome. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in several diseases, including Barber-Say syndrome; Sweeney-Cox syndrome; and synostosis (multiple). Is an ortholog of human TWIST2 (twist family bHLH transcription factor 2). | Paper_evidence | WBPaper00065943 |

| | Disease_relevance | Twist1 is a well-conserved bHLH type transcriptional regulator protein present across species including humans, involved in the development of the mesoderm; mutations in Twist1 are implicated in the craniofacial disorder Saethre-Chotzen syndrome, characterized by the premature fusion of certain skull bones (craniosynostosis), preventing the skull from growing normally and affecting the shape of the head and face; studies with the C. elegans Twist ortholog indicate that the semi-dominant mutant (n2170) shares the muscle development defective phenotypes with the loss-of-function mutant (nr2061); further, when mutations similar to Saethre-Chotzen syndrome mutations were introduced into elegans Twist, similar muscle defective phenotypes were observed, suggesting that Saethre-Chotzen syndrome may be caused, in some cases, by dominant negative proteins, rather than by haploinsufficiency of the locus. | Homo sapiens | Paper_evidence | WBPaper00005324 |
