A compound named for it activates Lefty-1 transcription and patterns the hindbrain.
Math5 and other homologs of atonal are required for differentiation of cells in this structure. Its patterning is driven by Soho-1 and GH6 in chicks. During development, this structure is split by a transient acellular layer named for Chievitz. A compound named for it activates Lefty-1 transcription and patterns the hindbrain. In Drosophila, a wave of hedgehog creates the morphogenetic furrow during the development of the (*) nasotemporal axis of this structure, which proceeds by the induction of a single R8 cell. The namesake progenitors for this structure localize to the ciliary marginal zone or to its namesake pigmented epithelium. During differentiation, it produces MÃ¼ller glia. Horizontal cells nest on this structure's outer plexiform layer, one of seven layers that also include bipolar and amacrine neurons. For 10 points, name this light-sensitive tissue home to rods and cones.
