Left/right asymmetrically expressed ephrin and Flamingo proteins regulate lateralized axon growth in C. elegans

While the nervous system of bilaterian animals is mainly left-right (L-R) symmetric at the anatomical level, some molecular and functional L-R asymmetries exist. However, the extent of these molecular asymmetries and their functional consequences remain poorly characterized. C. elegans allows to stu...
