The Snail superfamily of zinc-finger transcription factors is involved in processes that imply
pronounced cell movements, both during embryonic development and in the acquisition of
invasive and migratory properties during tumour progression. Different family members have
also been implicated in the signalling cascade that confers left–right identity, as well as in
the formation of appendages, neural differentiation, cell division and cell survival.
