An Error has occurred retrieving Wikidata item for infobox Neurogenic differentiation 1 (NeuroD1), also called β2,[1] is a transcription factor of the NeuroD-type. It is encoded by the human gene NEUROD1.

It is a member of the NeuroD family of basic helix-loop-helix (bHLH) transcription factors. The protein forms heterodimers with other bHLH proteins and activates transcription of genes that contain a specific DNA sequence known as the E-box. It regulates expression of the insulin gene, and mutations in this gene result in type II diabetes mellitus.[2]

NeuroD1 is found to convert reactive glial cells into functional neurons in the mouse brain in vivo[3]

Interactions

NEUROD1 has been shown to interact with MAP3K10,[4] MAFA[5] and Cyclin D1.[6]
