Single Minded 2: Cross coupling or specificity within the bHLH/PAS transcription factor family? Understanding the mechanisms of action of SIM2 may lead to novel ideas towards drug development for diseases such as Down syndrome and cancer. The SIM2 protein can interfere with activity of the related Hypoxia Inducible Factor (HIF), a protein important in stress response and recovery from stroke. Understanding the molecular basis of this interference could aid current strategies being used to manipu ....Single Minded 2: Cross coupling or specificity within the bHLH/PAS transcription factor family?
