TL;DR: The cloning of the FMF gene promises to shed light on the regulation of acute inflammatory responses and is described as a member of a family of nuclear factors homologous to the Ro52 autoantigen.

Koichi Suzuki,Atsumi Mori,Stefano Lavaroni,Luca Ulianich,Eri Miyagi,Jun Saito,Minoru Nakazato,Michele Pietrarelli,Neta Shafran,Antonino Grassadonia,Won Bae Kim,Eduardo Consiglio,Silvestro Formisano,Leonard D. Kohn +13 more
TL;DR: It is hypothesized that TG-initiated, transcriptional regulation of thyroid-restricted genes is a normal, feedback, compensatory mechanism which regulates follicular function, regulates thyroid hormone secretion, and contributes to follicular heterogeneity.

TL;DR: This transcript map not only has permitted the identification of the FMF gene (MEFV), but also has provided an opportunity to probe the structural and functional features of this region of chromosome 16.
