Abstract excerpt
The murine Hoxa1 gene is a member of the vertebrate Hox complex and plays a role in defining the body plan during development. At day 8.0-9.0 post coitus, Hoxa1 transcripts are detected extensively throughout the embryo in the neural tube, adjacent mesenchyme, paraxial mesoderm, somites and gut epithelium; expression extends from the most caudal region of the embryo to the rhombomere 3/4 border. This...
