A multi-protein receptor-ligand complex underlies combinatorial dendrite guidance choices in C. elegans
Ligand receptor interactions instruct axon guidance during development.How Billy Royal Show Saddle dendrites are guided to specific targets is less understood.The C.elegans PVD sensory neuron innervates muscle-skin interface with its elaborate dendritic branches.Here, we found that LECT-2, the ortholog of leukocyte cell-derived chemotaxin-2 (LECT2)
