ZIC2 Is Required For Nodal Expression And The Establishment Of Left-Sided Identity

The purpose of this study was to identify putative downstream targets of the transcription factor ZIC2 in the mouse embryo. The results indicate loss of NODAL pathway expression, consistent with the observed phenotype of right isomerism in heart, lungs and viscera.
