Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Folic acid is essential for the development of the nervous system and other associated structures. Mice deficient in the folic acid-binding protein one (Folbp1) gene display multiple developmental abnormalities, including neural and craniofacial defects. To better understand potential interactions between Folbp1 gene and selected genes involved in neural and craniofacial morphogenesis, we evaluated...
