Conservation of neurogenic genes and mechanisms
Abstract
Reports from the past year have demonstrated that neural basic helix-loop-helix genes and LIM homeobox genes contribute to neuronal subtype specification in vertebrates and invertebrates, that Notch signaling specifies cell fates in the developing vertebrate inner ear, and that the organization of the central nervous system into three columns is shared by vertebrates and invertebrates. These findings pave the way for future work that will help to establish the extent to which these similarities represent evolutionary conservation.

Vertebrates and insects use the same transcriptional regulators for differentiation of neuroblasts, motoneurons, pioneer neurons, and glial cells.
“they use the same transcriptional regulators for the differentiation of neuroblasts, motoneurons, pioneer neurons, and glial cells (reviewed by Chan and Jan, 1999;Arendt and Nübler-Jung, 1999)”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
