The zone of polarizing activity (ZPA) is a specialized region involved in the antero-posterior (A-P) axis formation in chick and mouse limb buds. The existence of ZPA in the posterior margin is suggested in Xenopus hindlimb buds because 180Β°rotation of the distal limb tip induces the supernumerary l

PB-cadherin is a novel classic type of cadherin predominantly expressed in brain of adult rats (Sugimoto et al. [1996] J. Biol. Chem. 271:11548-11556). To examine the spatial and temporal expression of PB-cadherin during development, we isolated full-length cDNA of mouse PB-cadherin and studied its
The gut of vertebrates exhibits a common anteroposterior regional differentiation. The role of homeobox genes in establishing this pattern is inferred by their sites of expression. It is suggested that the primary source of positional information is in the endoderm, which subsequently establishes a
