Abstract excerpt
Mutations in the transcription factor PAX3 cause Waardenburg syndrome (WS) in humans and the mouse Splotch mutant, which display similar neural crest-derived defects. Previous characterization of disease-causing mutations revealed pleiotropic effects on PAX3 DNA binding and transcriptional activity. In this study, we evaluated the impact of disease alleles on PAX3 localization and mobility. Immunofluorescence...
