Abstract excerpt
Scribble1 (Scrib1) is a tumor suppressor gene that has long been established as an essential component of apicobasal polarity (ABP). In mouse models, mutations in Scrib1 cause a severe form of neural tube defects (NTDs) as a result of a defective planar cell polarity (PCP) signaling. In this study, we dissected the role of Scrib1 in the pathogenesis of NTDs in its mouse mutant Circletail (Crc), in cell lines and...
