TWIST1 controls cell-ECM interaction and mesenchyme genes in cranial mesoderm.
We identified genes that are TWIST1-dependent and predominantly expressed in the mesoderm.
ChIP-seq identified potential TWIST1-targets in a TWIST1-dependent mesenchymal cell model.
Three transcriptional targets of TWIST1 (Ddr2, Pcolce and Tgfbi) were validated.
