Abstract
By reverse-transcription polymerase chain reaction method, we isolated a novel murine LIM-homeodomain gene, L3. In situ hybridization analys es revealed that L3 mRNA was localized to the ventral telencephalon an d the mesenchyme surrounding the oral cavity of mouse embryo, suggesti ng that L3 may be involved in the region-specific differentiation of t hese areas.
