Microphthalmia-associated transcription factor (Mitf) is a member of the basic/helix-loop-helix/leucine zipper (b-HLH-ZIP) transcription factor subfamily. Mitf regulates the differentiation of melanocytes, optic cup-derived retinal pigment epithelium (RPE), and some types of bone marrow-derived cells. Mitf is crucial for normal retina and  RPE development. This lentivirus expresses one of the isoform of Mitf, human Mitf-D, under the control of the Tet promoter.
