Mutations of these genes cause death at the embryo stage. Many of them have counterparts in the human genome, so understanding why these genes are so vital could help prioritize human genes for study.</p> September 14, 2016 - 3:03pm Andy Fell /news/essential-mouse-genes-could-guide-human-precision-medicine
