Reference: J:32905 McMahon AP, et al., Developmental expression of the putative transcription factor Egr-1 suggests that Egr-1 and c-fos are coregulated in some tissues. Development. 1990 Feb;108(2):281-7
Assay type: RNA in situ
MGI Accession ID: MGI:5756055
Gene symbol: Egr1
Gene name: early growth response 1
