Disease relevance of Dmbx1

  • Neonatal lethality, dwarfism, and abnormal brain development in Dmbx1 mutant mice [1].
 

High impact information on Dmbx1

 

Biological context of Dmbx1

 

Anatomical context of Dmbx1

 

Regulatory relationships of Dmbx1

  • These data suggest that Otx3/Dmbx1 represses Otx2-mediated transcription in the developing brain [3].
 

Other interactions of Dmbx1

  • Dmbx1 shares its caudal border of expression with Otx2, while expression is sharply delimited rostrally by the synencephalic-parencephalic boundary, later becoming restricted to the posterior synencephalon [4].
  • We have isolated a paired homeobox containing gene, which has been recently named Dmbx1 (Mech. Dev. 110 (2002) 241) [7].
 

Analytical, diagnostic and therapeutic context of Dmbx1

  • Whole-mount in situ hybridization revealed that Dmbx1 expression is detected in 7.5-9.5 dpc mouse embryos [5].
  • Otx3 mRNA was expressed in mouse embryos from 10.5 to 13.5 days postcoitum (dpc) and in adult cerebellum as assessed by Northern blotting [2].
