About As071

Summary

This region represents an enhancer element that contains highly conserved sequence derived from a SINE retroposon. This enhancer directs expression of a reporter transgene in the lateral diencephalon and hypothalamus in a pattern similar to Fgf8 (Fibroblast Growth Factor 8), suggesting that it functions as a long range regulator of this gene. This element can be subdivided into different modules that are required for expression in different regions of the developing brain. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2015]
