Gene expression in notochord and nuclei pulposi: a study of gene families across the chordate phylum

Abstract The transition from notochord to vertebral column is a crucial milestone in chordate evolution and in prenatal development of all vertebrates. As ossification of the vertebral bodies proceeds, involutions of residual notochord cells into the intervertebral discs form the nuclei pulposi, sho...
