The Establishment and Stabilization of Anterior-posterior Identity In the Hindbrain: On the Regulation of the Segmentation Gene MafB
In vertebrates, the embryonic hindbrain is transiently subdivided along its anterior-posterior (A-P) axis into 8 well defined segments termed rhombomeres (r1-8). Each rhombomere represents a true cellular compartment in transcriptional profile, lineage restriction and neuronal organization. Thus, th...
