A Farnesyltransferase Acts to Inhibit Ectopic Neurite Formation in C. elegans.

A Farnesyltransferase Acts to Inhibit Ectopic Neurite Formation in C. elegans.

Genetic pathways that regulate nascent neurite formation play a critical role in neuronal morphogenesis. The core planar cell polarity components VANG-1/Van Gogh and PRKL-1/Prickle are involved in blocking inappropriate neurite formation in a subset of motor neurons in C. elegans. A genetic screen f...
