Abstract excerpt
The murine genes, Foxc1 and Foxc2 (previously, Mf1 and Mfh1), encode forkhead/winged helix transcription factors with virtually identical DNA-binding domains and overlapping expression patterns in various embryonic tissues. Foxc1/Mf1 is disrupted in the mutant, congenital hydrocephalus (Foxc1/Mf1(ch)), which has multiple developmental defects. We show here that, depending on the genetic background, most Foxc1...
