hamlet, a binary genetic switch between single- and multiple- dendrite neuron morphology.

Science (New York, N.Y.) - 23 Aug 2002

Moore Adrian W, Jan Lily Yeh, Jan Yuh Nung

Abstract excerpt

The dendritic morphology of neurons determines the number and type of inputs they receive. In the Drosophila peripheral nervous system (PNS), the external sensory (ES) neurons have a single nonbranched dendrite, whereas the lineally related multidendritic (MD) neurons have extensively branched dendritic arbors. We report that hamlet is a binary genetic switch between these contrasting morphological types. In...
