High impact information on ISL2

  • We cloned and characterized the ISL2 and LHX2 LIM-homeodomain transcription factors of the Mexican salamander, or axolotl, Ambystoma mexicanum [1].
  • Other LIM-homeobox proteins (Lim-1, -2 and -3 and Islet-2) are not expressed either in normal or Frorieps' DRG at early stages of development [2].
