Abstract excerpt
Mouse embryos deficient in Gata3 die by 11 days post coitum (d.p.c.) from pathology of undetermined origin. We recently showed that Gata3-directed lacZ expression of a 625-kb Gata3 YAC transgene in mice mimics endogenous Gata3 expression, except in thymus and the sympathoadrenal system. As this transgene failed to overcome embryonic lethality (unpublished data and ref. 3) in Gata3-/- mice, we hypothesized that a...
