Molecular mechanisms of tiling and self-avoidance in neural development

<p>Abstract</p> <p>Recent studies have begun to unravel the molecular basis of tiling and self-avoidance, two important cellular mechanisms that shape neuronal circuitry during development in both invertebrates and vertebrates. Dscams and Turtle (Tutl), two Ig superfamily proteins,...
