Multiple functions for Pax6 in mouse eye and nasal development.

Abstract excerpt

Mouse embryos, homozygous for the small eye (Sey) mutation die soon after birth with severe facial abnormalities that result from the failure of the eyes and nasal cavities to develop. Mutations in the Pax6 gene are responsible for the Sey phenotype. As a general disruption of eye and nasal development occurs in the homozygous Sey embryos, it is unclear, from the mutant phenotype alone, which tissues require...
