Introduction
Vax1 is a novel homeobox gene discovered 1998 by a group of researchers in Max Planck Institute for Biophysical Chemistry [1] in the human and mouse genome, crucial to the development of the forebrain, olfactory, and visual systems of mammals. Vax1 is a gene that directly regulates the activation of transcriptional factors such as Six3, which plays a major role in the synthesis of the neural and ciliary structure of the frontal systems of the brain and visual senses.
