Abstract excerpt
The Eph receptor tyrosine kinases and their membrane-anchored ligands, ephrins, are signaling proteins that act as axon guidance molecules during chick auditory brainstem development. We recently showed that Eph proteins also affect patterns of neural activation in the mammalian brainstem. However, functional deficits in the brainstems of mutant mice have not been assessed physiologically. The present study...
