Simple workflow. Simplified version of the process used to find out which genes are involved in the development of a particular human structure. First the equivalent structure is identified in the mouse embryo and the genes expressed here are found. These genes are 'BLASTed' to find homologous human genes. XSPAN is a cross-species anatomy database, and EMAGE is a mouse gene expression database.
