Gene expression profiles in developing nephrons using Lim1 metanephric mesenchyme-specific conditional mutant mice
Lim1 is a homeobox gene that is essential for nephrogenesis. During metanephric kidney development, Lim1 is expressed in the nephric duct, ureteric buds, and the induced metanephric mesenchyme. Conditional ablat...
