The snail superfamily of zinc-finger transcription factors
12 páginas, 5 figuras, 3 cuadros, 1 tabla.The Snail superfamily of zinc-finger transcription factors is involved in processes that imply pronounced cell movements, both during embryonic development and in the acquisition of invasive and migratory properties during tumour progression. Different family members have also been implicated in the signalling cascade that confers left–right identity, as well as in the formation of appendages, neural differentiation, cell division and cell survival.Work in the lab is, at present,
supported by grants from the Spanish Ministries of Science
and Technology (DGESIC) and Health (FIS), and from the Local
Government (Comunidad AutĂłnoma de Madrid).Peer reviewe
