Abstract excerpt
Zellweger syndrome is the prototypic human peroxisomal biogenesis disorder that results in abnormal neuronal migration in the central nervous system and severe neurologic dysfunction. A murine model for this disorder was previously developed by targeted deletion of the PEX2 peroxisomal gene. By labeling neuronal precursor cells in vivo with a mitotic marker, we can demonstrate a delay in neuronal migration in the...
