The neuronal zootype. An hypothesis.

Comptes rendus de l'Academie des sciences. Serie III, Sciences de la vie - 1 Sept 1998

Deutsch J, Le Guyader H

Abstract excerpt

We present an hypothesis, derived from the zootype concept of Slack, Holland and Graham. The main point of this hypothesis is to postulate that the primordial function of the zootype genes is to design an appropriate neuronal network in bilaterian animals, by controlling the genes involved in the specificity of the axon pathways. This would be the primary function of the zootype genes in development and their...
