JNK signaling in pioneer neurons organizes ventral nerve cord architecture in Drosophila embryos
The shape and size of the mature central nervous system is highly regular, implying precise architectural rules. The authors show that alterations in JNK signaling in selected neurons impact the overall 3-dimensional organization of the Drosophila ventral nerve cord in a cell non-autonomous fashion.
