Within the Drosophila embryo, two related bHLH-PAS proteins, Single-minded and Trachealess, control development of the central nervous system midline and the trachea, respectively. These two proteins
Myocyte Enhancer Factor 2C (MEF2C) is a transcription factor that plays a crucial role in neurogenesis and synapse development. Genetic studies have identified MEF2C as a gene that influences cognitio
Rationale: The Id1 and Id3 genes play major roles during cardiac development, despite their expression being confined to non-myocardial layers (endocardium – endothelium - epicardium). We previously d
We examined the effect of Myt1l deficiency in the cortices of mice during developement. Homozygous Myt1l deficiency resulted in postnatal lethality, and mutant mice presented gene expression changes a
