Aumais J, Tunstead J, McNeil R, Schaar B, McConnell S, Lin S, et al.
J Neurosci . 2001 Dec; 21(24):RC187. PMID: 11734602
NUDC is a highly conserved protein important for nuclear migration and viability in Aspergillus nidulans. Mammalian NudC interacts with Lis1, a neuronal migration protein important during neocorticogenesis, suggesting a conserved...

Friocourt G, Chafey P, Billuart P, Koulakoff A, Vinet M, Schaar B, et al.
Mol Cell Neurosci . 2001 Oct; 18(3):307-19. PMID: 11591131
Doublecortin is a microtubule-associated protein required for normal corticogenesis in the developing brain. We carried out a yeast two-hybrid screen to identify interacting proteins. One of the isolated clones encodes...

Cahana A, Escamez T, Nowakowski R, Hayes N, Giacobini M, von Holst A, et al.
Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A . 2001 May; 98(11):6429-34. PMID: 11344260
Lissencephaly is a severe brain malformation in humans. To study the function of the gene mutated in lissencephaly (LIS1), we deleted the first coding exon from the mouse Lis1 gene....

Chenn A, Levin M, McConnell S
J Neurobiol . 2001 Feb; 46(3):167-77. PMID: 11169503
Genes expressed in layer-specific patterns in the mammalian cerebral cortex may play a role in specifying the identity of different cortical layers. Using PCR-differential display, we identified a cDNA that...

Mulieri P, Okada A, Sassoon D, McConnell S, Krauss R
Dev Dyn . 2000 Sep; 219(1):40-9. PMID: 10974670
CDO is a cell-surface protein of the immunoglobulin/fibronectin type III repeat family that positively regulates myogenic differentiation in vitro. To gain a better understanding of the role of cdo during...

McConnell S, Beynon C, Leamon J, Skibinski D
Anim Genet . 2000 Jul; 31(3):214-8. PMID: 10895314
Partial genetic linkage maps, based on microsatellite markers, were constructed for two tilapia species, Oreochromis aureus and Oreochromis niloticus using an interspecific backcross population. The linkage map for O. aureus...

Desai A, McConnell S
Development . 2000 Jun; 127(13):2863-72. PMID: 10851131
During early stages of cerebral cortical development, progenitor cells in the ventricular zone are multipotent, producing neurons of many layers over successive cell divisions. The laminar fate of their progeny...

Hebert J, McConnell S
Dev Biol . 2000 Jun; 222(2):296-306. PMID: 10837119
The use of genetics to study the development of the telencephalon and derivatives such as the cerebral cortex has been limited. The telencephalon begins to form midway through gestation, and...

Xu B, Zang K, Ruff N, Zhang Y, McConnell S, Stryker M, et al.
Neuron . 2000 May; 26(1):233-45. PMID: 10798407
To examine functions of TrkB in the adult CNS, TrkB has been removed from neurons expressing CaMKII, primarily pyramidal neurons, using Cre-mediated recombination. A floxed trkB allele was designed so...

Weimann J, Zhang Y, Levin M, Devine W, Brulet P, McConnell S
Neuron . 2000 Jan; 24(4):819-31. PMID: 10624946
Information processing in the nervous system depends on the creation of specific synaptic connections between neurons and targets during development. The homeodomain transcription factor Otx1 is expressed in early-generated neurons...
