Abstract excerpt
The regulatory network governed by CDX/Caudal family transcription factors plays critical roles in shaping embryonic neural development. In C. elegans, we found that proper expression of pal-1, the C. elegans Caudal homologue, is required for correct positioning of motor neuron cell bodies in the first larval stage ventral nerve cord (VNC). We identified an upstream regulatory region within the pal-1 promoter...
