Abstract excerpt
GATA-3 is one member of a growing family of related transcription factors which share a strongly conserved expression pattern in all vertebrate organisms. In order to elucidate GATA-3 function using a direct genetic approach, we have disrupted the murine gene by homologous recombination in embryonic stem cells. Mice heterozygous for the GATA3 mutation are fertile and appear in all respects to be normal, whereas...
