Identification of genes important for cutaneous function revealed by a large scale reverse genetic screen in the mouse.

The skin is a highly regenerative organ which plays critical roles in protecting the body and sensing its environment. Consequently, morbidity and mortality associated with skin defects represent a significant health issue. To identify genes important in skin development and homeostasis, we have app...
