Transcription factor Sp8 also known as specificity protein 8 (SP-8) or Btd transcription factor (buttonhead)^[1] is a protein that in humans is encoded by the SP8 gene.^[2]^[3] Sp8 is a transcription factor in the Sp/KLF family.

Function [edit]

Sp8 mediates limb outgrowth during early development.^[1] Sp8 deletion in mice resulted in severe exencephaly.^[4]
