Facts about Double homeobox protein 4C.
May regulate microRNA (miRNA) transcription, upregulating the expression of some myogenic miRNAs, including MIR1-1, MIR133A2, MIR133B and MIR206. Impairs the differentiation of myoblasts and can be involved in muscle regeneration.

PMID: 19829708 by Ansseau E., et al. DUX4c is up-regulated in FSHD. It induces the MYF5 protein and human myoblast proliferation.
PMID: 18723017 by Bosnakovski D., et al. DUX4c, an FSHD candidate gene, interferes with myogenic regulators and abolishes myoblast differentiation.
