Dynamic expression of chicken Sox2 and Sox3 genes in ectoderm induced to form neural tissue
1 Jul 1997
Abstract excerpt
The chick genes, cSox2 and cSox3, are members of a large family of genes that encode transcription factors. Previous studies have shown that these genes are predominantly expressed in the central nervous system during embryonic development. We show that cSox3 is expressed throughout the ectoderm that is competent to form nervous tissue before neural induction. The expression of cSox3 is lost from cells as they...
