Mash1 and Math3 are required for development of branchiomotor neurons and maintenance of neural progenitors.

Abstract excerpt

Basic helix-loop-helix (bHLH) transcription factors are known to play important roles in neuronal determination and differentiation. However, their exact roles in neural development still remain to be determined because of the functional redundancy. Here, we examined the roles of neural bHLH genes Mash1 and Math3 in the development of trigeminal and facial branchiomotor neurons, which derive from rhombomeres 2-4....
