  • Our genetic evidence from Drosophila and previous in vitro studies of mammalian Atonal homolog 1 (Atoh1, also called Math1 or Hath1) suggest an anti-oncogenic function for the Atonal group of proneural basic helix-loop-helix transcription factors.

  • It's a proneural gene, which means it activates some part of the embryonic development of the nervous system — in this case, chordotonal organs, cell structures designed to pick up vibrations (think eardrums and the like).
