Abstract
The transcription factor p63 is a master regulator of multiple ectodermal derivatives. During epidermal commitment, p63 interacts with several chromatin remodeling complexes to transactivate epidermal-specific genes and repress transcription of simple epithelial and nonepithelial genes. In the postnatal epidermis, p63 is required to control the proliferative potential of progenitor cells, maintain epidermal integrity, and contribute to epidermal differentiation. Autosomal dominant sequence variant in p63 cause a spectrum of syndromic disorders that affect several tissues, including or derived from stratified epithelia. In this review, we describe the recent studies that have provided novel insights into disease pathogenesis and potential therapeutic targets.
