Axon guidance mechanisms in Caenorhabditis elegans.

Current opinion in genetics & development - 1 Aug 1994

Culotti J G

Abstract excerpt

Genetic studies have identified an extracellular path cue molecule, UNC-6, and a neuronal receptor, UNC-5, that act to guide migrating pioneer growth cones along the dorsoventral coordinate of the Caenorhabditis elegans body wall. Ectopic expression studies and characterization of mutants have de...
