Abstract excerpt
Early mouse development is a complicated process that is controlled by various proteins including transcription factors. Recently, we identified a putative transcription factor, ELYS (embryonic large molecule derived from yolk sac), using a subtraction strategy. To elucidate the role of ELYS in vivo, we generated ELYS-deficient mice by homologous recombination. Although heterozygous mice appeared to be healthy,...
