Abstract excerpt
Duplication of the msh-like homeobox gene of Drosophila may be related to the evolution of the vertebrate head. The murine homologues of this gene, msx 1 and msx 2 are expressed in the developing craniofacial complex including the branchial arches, especially in regions of epithelial-mesenchymal...
