Abstract excerpt
The meander tail mouse harbors a recessive mutation on chromosome 4 that affects the anterior lobes of the cerebellum and the caudal vertebrae. Examination of the mea/mea cerebellum reveals that the complete disorganization of all cell types seen in the anterior lobes is separated by a sharp and consistent boundary from the normal cytoarchitecture of the posterior lobes. In the absence of any biochemical...
