Abstract:Positional information encoded in signaling molecules is essential for early patterning in the prosensory domain of the developing cochlea. The cochlea contains an exquisite repeating pattern of sensory hair cells and supporting cells. This requires precision in the morphogen signals that set the initial radial compartment boundaries, but this has not been investigated. To measure gradient formation and morphogenetic precision in developing cochlea, we developed a quantitative image analysis procedure measurin… Show more
