Nrl expression and promoter activity in developing cone photoreceptors

2026-08-07

Abstract excerpt

The MAF family transcription factor Nrl is a key regulator of vertebrate rod photoreceptor formation/differentiation. The expression of Nrl in nascent photoreceptors has been proposed to act as a master regulator to initiate a rod program and to repress a default cone photoreceptor sister fate. The evidence for rod-specific expression of Nrl has been most strongly supported by mouse transgenic models that use a...
