Background: The transcription factor PITX3 is expressed selectively in the midbrain and regulates the differentiation and survival of dopaminergic neurons. Lack of this factor results in a degeneration similar to that seen in Parkinson's disease. PITX3 is also important in eye developement; mutations of the PITX3 gene have been associated with a familial form of cataracts.
