Disease relevance of gfi1
- As with its murine homologue, gfi1 expression is detected in the ganglion cells of the neural retina and in developing hair cells of the ear [1].
High impact information on gfi1
- Parapineal specific expression of gfi1 in the zebrafish epithalamus [1].
- Finally, gfi1 is expressed in the developing epithalamus in the dorsal diencephalon where its transcription is restricted to the parapineal [1].
Anatomical context of gfi1
- In keeping with a role in the development of sensory hair cells, gfi1 is also expressed in neuromasts of the anterior and posterior lateral line system [1].
