Abstract excerpt
Studies on the mouse Splotch (Sp) mutation, a deletion in the transcription factor Pax-3, have revealed that Pax-3 is essential for normal development of the neural crest. We have investigated the defect in neural crest development using a Wnt-l::LacZ reporter construct to mark neural crest cells. Staining embryos for beta-galactosidase activity at different developmental stages revealed a severe reduction in the...
