| abstractText | In search of genes possibly involved in the regulation of hindbrain segmentation, we have isolated mouse cDNA clones corresponding to putative protein kinase genes by polymerase chain reaction amplification of cDNA from 9.5-day-old embryo hindbrains. In situ hybridization analysis revealed that one of these genes, Sek, was expressed in an alternating segment-restricted pattern in the developing hindbrain. Isolation and analysis of Sek cDNAs covering the entire coding sequence indicated that Sek encoded a putative receptor protein tyrosine kinase, belonging to the Eph family. These data are consistent with a role of the Sek gene product in a signal transduction process involved in pattern formation in the hindbrain. |
