Abstract excerpt
The human PAX3 gene contains a paired box and a paired-type homeobox, and is believed to play a role in pattern formation in the embryo. We describe the exon-intron structure of the homeobox-containing part of PAX3, complementing earlier descriptions of the 5' part of the gene. Mutations in PAX3...
