Zebrafish hox genes: expression in the hindbrain region of wild-type and mutants of the segmentation gene, valentino.

Abstract excerpt

The developing hindbrain is organized into a series of segments termed rhombomeres which represent lineage restricted compartments correlating with domains of gene expression and neuronal differentiation. In this study, we investigate the processes of hindbrain segmentation and the acquisition of segmental identity by analyzing the expression of zebrafish hox genes in the hindbrains of normal fish and fish with a...
