Disease relevance of six3a

 

High impact information on six3a

  • Our results indicate that reduction in Brg1 expression leads to the expansion of the forebrain-specific transcription factor, six3, and marked reduction in expression of the mid/hind-brain boundary and hind-brain genes, engrailed2 and krox20, respectively [2].
  • Furthermore, an enhancement of six3.1 transcription by Pax6.1 was observed by co-injection experiments [1].
  • We studied the 5(') flanking region of six3.1 and showed that separate enhancing elements are required for expression at different stages of eye development [1].
