A novel Eph receptor-interacting IgSF protein provides C. elegans motoneurons with midline guidepost function.

Current biology : CB - 10 Oct 2006

Boulin Thomas, Pocock Roger, Hobert Oliver

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: The ventral midline is a prominent structure in vertebrate and invertebrate nervous systems that provides crucial topological information for guiding axons to their appropriate target destinations. Rather than being composed of specialized midline glia cells as in many other species, the embryonic midline of the nematode Caenorhabditis elegans is physically defined by motoneuron cell bodies that...
