英文摘要
DESCRIPTION (Verbatim from the applicant's abstract): Sight is critically
dependent on the development of appropriate eye morphology and cell types.
Although many genes involved in eye development have been isolated, the genetic
regulatory pathways that control vertebrate retinal cell differentiation remain
undetermined. Moreover, the link between gene activity and cell determination
is not well understood. This proposal aims to investigate the cellular and
molecular mechanisms of eye formation by (1) decifering the functional
relationships among the different genes that control eye formation and then (2)
characterizing the role of two retinal genes integral to eye development, Chx10
and Mitf or microphthalmia. By analyzing the expression patterns of the eye
transcription factors in wild-type embryos and embryos over-expressing the
individual genes, it will be possible to outline a genetic hierarchy.
Dominant-negative inhibition and enhancer activation of their function in the
developing animal will be used to more precisely define the functional
relationships of these genes. In addition, over-expression or inhibition of
Chx10 and Mitf at the 2-cell stage and in embryonic optic vesicles (stage 18)
may reveal new functions for these genes that previous studies in mice have
not.
