The retroviral oncogene qin belongs to the transcription factor family that includes the homeotic gene fork head.

Li J, Vogt PK

Abstract

Avian sarcoma virus 31 contains an oncogene that we have named qin. qin codes for a nuclear protein, Qin, that is a member of the HNF-3/fork head family of transcriptional regulators. Within this family Qin is particularly closely related to rat brain factor 1 (BF-1), a telencephalon-specific gene presumed to play an important role in the development of the mammalian brain.
