Isolation of a novel chick homolog of Serrate and its coexpression with C-Notch-1 in chick development.In most of the regions where C-Serrate-2 was expressed, C-Notch-1 was also expressed. Paper-1143052. Our observations suggest that Serrate-2-Notch-1 signaling plays a role in a variety of morphogeneses during the chick development. Notch, Delta and Serrate homologs in chicken have been cloned (Henrique et al., Nature 375: 787-790, 1995; Myat et al., Dev. Biol. 174: 233-247, 1996). Paper-1143052. The Notch genes are highly conserved both in invertebrates and in vertebrates, suggesting that Notch pathway regulates cell fate decisions during vertebrates development. Paper-1143052. C-Serrate-2 transcripts were detected in several tissues including the forebrain, the myotome and the apical ectodermal ridge (AER) of the limb bud of a 4-day-old chick embryo. Paper-1143052. We isolated a novel chick homolog of Drosophila Serrate, named C-Serrate-2, and examined its expression patterns during the early chick development using whole-mount in situ hybridization. Paper-1143052. Intercellular signaling mediated by the transmembrane proteins, Notch as receptor and its ligands, Delta and Serrate, plays essential roles in the developmental fate decision of many cell types in Drosophila.
