...Dalit Sela-Donenfeld; Chaya Kalcheim For neural crest cells to engage in migration, it is necessary that epithelial premigratory crest cells convert into mesenchyme. The mechanisms that trigger cell delamination from the dorsal neural tube remain poorly understood. We find that, in 15-to 40-somite...
