Guidance cues at the Drosophila CNS midline: identification and characterization of two Drosophila Netrin/UNC-6 homologs.

Neuron - 1 Aug 1996

Harris R, Sabatelli L M, Seeger M A

Abstract excerpt

Netrins are chemotropic guidance signals that play important roles in circumferential axon guidance in C. elegans and in the developing vertebrate spinal cord. We have identified two Drosophila homologs of this protein family (Netrin-A and Netrin-B). Both Netrins are dynamically expressed through...
