Abstract
Mouse genes containing homeo box domains are predicted to fulfill important functions in embryogenesis. Using recombinant inbred mouse strains, we have mapped a mouse gene which contains a homeo box with homology to the Drosophila engrailed gene. This gene maps to mouse chromosome 1 near or at the dominant hemimelia locus which is a known mouse developmental mutation.Keywords
