Abstract excerpt
In this study, we extend our examination of the function of the Prrx1 (a.k.a Mhox, Prx1, K-2, and Pmx1) as well as Prrx2 (a.k.a. S8 and Prx2) genes by characterizing the expression of the human orthologs and their potential for causing specific human malformations. The expression pattern of PRRX2 and its close relative, PRRX1, were analyzed in human tissue by RT-PCR. Although the expression of these human genes...
