In recent years it has become evident that the developmental regulatory genes involved in patterning the embryonic body plan are conserved throughout the animal kingdom. Striking examples are the orthodenticle (otd/Otx) gene family and the Hox gene family, both of which act in the specification of a
## Background Early in mammalian brain development cell proliferation generates a population of progenitor cells whose subsequent divisions produce increasing numbers of postmitotic neurons. Pax6 affects both processes and it has been suggested that this changing role is due at least in part to cha
