Neurogenins are a family of bHLH transcription factors involved in specifying neuronal differentiation. They are related to Drosophila atonal.

The neurogenins (ngns) make up one of these atonal-related gene families. In neural crest cells, the atonal-related neurogenin family is particularly important for the sensory lineage (Neurogenins Are Essential for the Formation of Dorsal Root Ganglia), while the achaete-scute homologue ash1 (Mash1) is important for aspects of autonomic neurogenesis (Mash1 Is Essential for Noradrenergic Differentiation)^[1].

[edit] Types

Neurogenin-1 (NEUROG1) is expressed in and required for specification of dopaminergic progenitor cells^[2].
Neurogenin-2 (NEUROG2)
Neurogenin-3 promotes (NEUROG2) pancreatic development.
