Annals of the New York Academy of Sciences - 1 Sept 2009

Abstract excerpt
Natural genetic diversity is a largely untapped reservoir for use in the discovery of stem cell regulatory pathways. Here we explore the means by which phenotypic diversity in mice can lead to the discovery of novel genes affecting stem cell regulation. We use as an example the discovery that latexin is a regulator of the natural size of the hematopoietic stem cell population in mice. The fact that it is a...
