Structural distinctions in BMPs underlie divergent signaling in spinal neurons
<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>In dorsal spinal neurons and monocytes, bone morphogenetic protein (BMP)7 activates distinct transduction pathways, one leading to inductive specification and the other to axon orientation and chemotaxis. BMP7-evoked induction, also...
