Abstract excerpt
Early development of the lens and retina depends upon reciprocal inductive interactions between the embryonic surface ectoderm and the underlying neuroepithelium of the optic vesicle. FGF signaling has been implicated in this signal exchange. The docking protein FRS2alpha is a major mediator of FGF signaling by providing a link between FGF receptors (FGFRs) and a variety of intracellular signaling pathways. After...
