Loss of Hox-A1 (Hox-1.6) function results in the reorganization of the murine hindbrain.

Abstract excerpt

Targeted disruption of the murine hox-A1 gene results in severe defects in the formation of the hindbrain and associated cranial ganglia and nerves. Carbocyanine dye injections were used to trace afferent and efferent projections to and from the hindbrain in hox-A1-/hox-A1- mutant mice. Defects were observed in the position of efferent neurons in the hindbrain and in their projection patterns. In situ...
