Roles of Maf family proteins in lens development.

Developmental dynamics : an official publication of the American Association of Anatomists - 1 Mar 2004

Reza Hasan Mahmud, Yasuda Kunio

Abstract excerpt

Lens provides a good model for studying developmental cues relevant to cellular and molecular interactions. Basic region/leucine zipper (bZIP) transcription factors have been found to play key roles during eye formation in various species, including human, mouse, rat, Xenopus, zebrafish, chick, and quail. Different ocular developmental anomalies associated with MAF mutation in human implicate its active role...
