| abstractText | Opr/Zic5 is a zinc-finger gene belonging to, and unique in, the opa/Zic family. Its expression is found in the anterior epiblast and anterior neuroectoderm during gastrulation and early neurulation. Later, we found the expression characteristic in the dorsomedial parts of forebrain and midbrain. However, no defects were apparent in embryonic day 10.5 Opr null mutants, and subtle defects were later found in medial pallium and ventral structures of forebrain, suggesting the compensation of Opr deficiency by its cognate(s).
