BMP controls dorsoventral and neural patterning in indirect

Maternal genes involved in dorsoventral (D/V) pattern-ing of the Drosophila embryo interact to establish a stable nuclear concentration gradient of the Dorsal pro-tein which acts as the morphogen along this axis This protein belongs to the rel proto-oncogene and NF-KB transcriptional factor family and acts by controlling zygotic gene expression

Dorsoventral patterning of the vertebrate neural tube is

implicated in the dorsoventral patterning of the vertebrate neural tube The vertebrate spinal cord exhibits extensive dorsoventral compartmentalization, which is initiated by two non-neural tissues, the notochord and the dorsal ectoderm (Tanabe and Jessell, 1996) The speciﬁcation of ventral cell types, es-

Maternal and Zygotic Control of Zebrafish Dorsoventral Axial

required to form and pattern the dorsoventral axis In this review, we focus on the molecu-lar factors and mechanisms that establish and pattern the dorsoventral axis of the zebraﬁsh (Danio rerio) embryo, including establishment of the animal-vegetal axis during oogenesis as it relates to formation of the dorsoventral axis

Role of DIVARICATA in the control of dorsoventral asymmetry

dorsoventral asymmetry Thus, in double cyc;dich mu-tants, dorsoventral asymmetry is completely lost in the flower as a whole, which becomes radially symmetrical, and in individual petals, which adopt ventral identity (Fig 1) In line with their redundant role, CYC and DICH are both specifically expressed in a dorsal domain of the
