EFN-4/Ephrin converges with SAX-3/Robo, UNC-6/Netrin, and Heparan Sulfate Proteoglycan signaling to control MAB-5/Hox-dependent posterior Q neuroblast migration in Caenorhabditis elegans

Abstract Hox genes have been broadly implicated in nervous system development, but the molecular and genetic mechanisms that act downstream of Hox factors remain to be identified. The MAB-5 antennapedia-like Hox transcription factor is both necessary and sufficient to cause poste...
