Abstract
⺠Two new Pax2 mutant alleles were created by EGFP insertion. ⺠A hypomorphic allele shows reduced Pax2 expression and structural kidney defects. ⺠Pax2 functions to maintain epithelial cell polarity in the intermediate mesoderm. ⺠The Pax2-EGFP alleles can facilitate studies in the kidney and nervous system.
