Sex-specific modifiers of tail development in mice heterozygous for the brachyury (T) mutation.

Mammalian genome : official journal of the International Mammalian Genome Society - 1 Feb 1998

Abstract excerpt

The brachyury, or T, locus encodes a transcription factor that plays a crucial role in the early development of all animals. In the mouse, animals heterozygous for a null mutation at this locus are born with a characteristic short tail. Expressivity of the short tail phenotype is greatly affected...
