ZBED6, a novel transcription factor derived from a domesticated DNA transposon regulates IGF2 expression and muscle growth.
A single nucleotide substitution in intron 3 of IGF2 in pigs abrogates a binding site for a repressor and leads to a 3-fold up-regulation of IGF2 in skeletal muscle. The mutation has major effects on muscle growth, size of the heart, and fat deposition. Here, we have identified the repressor and fin...
