Article Synopsis
- The Drosophila neuralized (neur) gene is part of a group that regulates cell interactions critical for developing neural precursors, leading to excessive neural cell commitment in mutants.
- The human counterpart, NEURL, is found on chromosome 10q25.1, a region often deleted in aggressive brain cancers like astrocytomas.
- Analysis of the mouse Neurl gene shows its activity in various embryonic tissues, suggesting it plays a significant role in early development, similar to its Drosophila relative.
