Abstract excerpt
The vulva of the nematode Caenorhabditis elegans develops from the three vulval precursor cells (VPCs) that are induced by a signal from the gonadal anchor cell. This signal is thought to be mediated by a receptor tyrosine kinase (RTK) in the VPCs to a downstream signal transduction pathway. A mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase (MAPKK) has been found to be one of the major components of an RTK pathway in...
