Srf (serum response factor)

Serum Response Factor (SRF) is a special protein inside our cells that helps control gene activity, especially in response to signals like growth or stress. It acts as a messenger, binding to specific regions of DNA to turn on or off genes involved in processes like cell growth, movement, and muscle development. SRF is essential for normal functioning of tissues and plays a role in how the body adapts to changes. When SRF doesn't work properly, it can contribute to health issues, including muscle disorders and some cardiovascular problems.
