What's a GeneRIF?
  1. Pax7 interacts with Pax3 to regulate morphogenesis and cell differentiation in the developing spinal cord.
    Title: Pax3 and Pax7 interact reciprocally and regulate the expression of cadherin-7 through inducing neuron differentiation in the developing chicken spinal cord.
  2. A 31-bp indel in intron 3 of the PAX7 gene was associated with chicken growth, carcass and meat quality traits where the 31-bp deletion had a negative effect on chicken growth and carcass traits and positive effect on meat quality traits.
    Title: A novel 31-bp indel in the paired box 7 (PAX7) gene is associated with chicken performance traits.
  3. PAX3 and PAX7 mRNA abundance increases with age were less pronounced in caged system chickens than in pen and free-range chickens from day 56 to 84; free-range chickens showed more pronounced increase in gene expression with age than did pen chickens.
    Title: Housing system influences abundance of Pax3 and Pax7 in postnatal chicken skeletal muscles.
  4. cMyb is identified as a novel regulator of Pax7 in early neural crest development.
    Title: Pax7 is regulated by cMyb during early neural crest development through a novel enhancer.
  5. The results described here suggest a model in which interdependent regulatory loops involving Pax3 and Pax7 in the dorsal mesencephalic vesicle modulate Meis2 expression.

  6. Myf5 was detected strictly within Pax7(+) cells and decreased during S phase while MyoD presence persisted in cycling cells

    Title: Identification and expression profile of a novel alternative splicing of Pax7 in chick skeletal muscle.
  8. Studies show the existence of distinct subpopulations of cells in the somite and developing limb that are defined by the relative expression levels of Pax7, and that Pax3 and Pax7 negatively regulate each other's expression in the dermomyotome.

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
