Function of the retinoic acid receptors (RARs) during development: (II) Multiple abnormalities at various stages of organogenesis in RAR double mutants

Abstract excerpt

Compound null mutations of retinoic acid receptor (RAR) genes lead to lethality in utero or shortly after birth and to numerous developmental abnormalities. In the accompanying paper (Lohnes, D., Mark., M., Mendelsohn, C., Dollé, P., Dierich, A., Gorry, Ph., Gansmuller, A. and Chambon, P. (1994). Development 120, 2723-2748), we describe malformations of the head, vertebrae and limbs which, with the notable...
