Abstract excerpt
Targeted disruption of Hoxa-3 results in a number of regionally restricted defects in tissues and structures derived from or patterned by mesenchymal neural crest. However, analysis of mutant embryos with injections of a carbocyanine dye or with molecular markers that label these cells indicates that neither the amount nor the migration patterns of this neural crest population are grossly affected. Therefore, it...
