Tbx2b is required for the development of the parapineal organ.

Development (Cambridge, England) - 1 May 2008

Abstract excerpt

Structural differences between the left and right sides of the brain exist throughout the vertebrate lineage. By studying the zebrafish pineal complex, which exhibits notable asymmetries, both the genes and the cell movements that result in left-right differences can be characterized. The pineal complex consists of the midline pineal organ and the left-sided parapineal organ. The parapineal is responsible for...
