Cloning and expressions of three mammalian homologues of Drosophila slit suggest possible roles for Slit in the formation and maintenance of the nervous system

In Drosophila embryogenesis, the slit gene has been shown to play a critical role in CNS midline formation. However, no slit homologues have been reported in vertebrates. Here, we have identified mammalian homologues of the slit gene (human Slit-1, Slit-2, Slit-3, and rat Slit-1). Each Slit gene enc...
