Identify a gene that plays an important role in eye lens development
MEMPHIS - American scientists at St. Peter's Research Hospital. Jude has discovered that the Six3 gene activates the Pax6 gene as part of the eye lens development in embryonic mammals.
(Photo: visionweb) In the past, doctors discovered Six3 gene mutations in patients with a disease called holoprosencephaly, facial deformities, a disease that could make a part of the set The brain is the brain that can't be separated into two brain lobes normally.
Holoprosencephaly disease is the most common anomaly of the frontal brain in humans. A few years ago, the St. Pet Research Hospital Research Group. Jude has demonstrated that Six3 gene activity plays an extremely important role in the normal development of the frontal brain of mice.
Now, scientists at St. Peter's Research Hospital. Jude expanded these results by demonstrating this result in the case of eye development, that the Six3 gene produces effects by activating the Pax6 gene, a gene that appears to be ' the main regulator ' . weak eye development process '.
Without the Six3 gene, the Pax6 gene will not be able to ' coordinate ' with other gene sequences, which work together to form the eye lens.
