Is TGF-β playing a role in ectopic neuromuscular junction formation in the nematode Caenorhabditis elegans?

The neuromuscular junction (nmj) is a commonly studied synapse, used often to investigate reciprocal signaling between a motor neuron and the appropriate target muscle. In Caenorhabditis elegans, ectopic nmjs can be created by eliminating selected embryonic muscle cells that act as guideposts for th...
