Disease_relevanceTwist1 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 sapiensPaper_evidenceWBPaper00005324

Reference (71)
RemarkMap position created from combination of previous interpolated map position (based on known location of sequence) and allele information. Therefore this is not a genetic map position based on recombination frequencies or genetic experiments. This was done on advice of the CGC.CGC_data_submission
