Myocyte-specific enhancer factor 2A is a protein that in humans is encoded by the MEF2A gene.
It is mapped to 15q26.
The protein encoded by this gene is a DNA-binding transcription factor that activates many muscle-specific, growth factor-induced, and stress-induced genes.
The encoded protein can act as a homodimer or as a heterodimer and is involved in several cellular processes, including muscle development, neuronal differentiation, cell growth control, and apoptosis.
Defects in this gene could be a cause of autosomal dominant coronary artery disease 1 with myocardial infarction (ADCAD1).
Several transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.
