Characterisation and functional analysis of the chicken microphthalmia gene

Includes bibliography. / Despite the fact that the chicken embryo is a model system for developmental biologists, comparatively little is known about the regulation of avian melanogenesis. There has only been one report of the characterisation of the chicken tyrosinase gene promoter, and only one full-length chicken microphthalmia cDNA (cmi9) has been identified to date.
