Elimination of the floor plate, a row of distinctive cells at the ventral midline of the spinal cord, dramatically increased the frequency of errors made by specific growth cones in the zebrafish embryo. This demonstrated that the floor plate participated in guiding specific growth cones at the ventral midline of the spinal cord. However, since a significant proportion of these growth cones fol...
The floor plate of the vertebrate nervous system has been implicated in the guidance of commissural axons at the ventral midline. Experiments in chick have also suggested that at earlier stages of development the floor plate induces the differentiation of motor neurons and other neurons of the ventral spinal cord. Here we have examined the development of the spinal cord in a mouse mutant, Danfo...
Danforth'sshort-tail (Sd) mouse is a semi-dominant mutation affecting the development of the vertebral column. Although the notochord degenerates completely by embryonic day 9.5, the vertebral column exists up to the lumber region, suggesting that the floor plate can substitute for notochord function. We previously established the mutant mouse line, Skt(Gt), through gene trap mutagenesis and id...
Developing axons are guided to their targets by attractive and repulsive guidance cues. In the embryonic spinal cord, the floor plate chemoattractant Netrin-1 is required to guide commissural neuron axons to the midline. However, genetic evidence suggests that other chemoattractant(s) are also involved. We show that the morphogen Sonic hedgehog (Shh) can mimic the additional chemoattractant act...
Extending axons are guided in part by diffusible chemoattractants that lure them to their targets and by diffusible chemorepellents that keep them away from nontarget regions. Floor plate cells at the ventral midline of the neural tube express a diffusible chemoattractant, netrin-1, that attracts a group of ventrally directed axons. Here we report that floor plate cells also have a long-range r...
The formation of neuronal networks is governed by a limited number of guidance molecules, yet it is immensely complex. The complexity of guidance cues is augmented by posttranslational modification of guidance molecules and their receptors. We report here that cleavage of the floor plate guidance molecule F-spondin generates two functionally opposing fragments: a short-range repellent protein d...
T-box genes encode transcriptional regulators that control many aspects of embryonic development. Here, we demonstrate that the mesodermally expressed zebrafish spadetail (spt)/VegT and no tail (ntl)/Brachyury T-box genes are semi-redundantly and cell-autonomously required for formation of all trunk and tail mesoderm. Despite the lack of posterior mesoderm in spt(-);ntl(-) embryos, dorsal-ventr...
The axial tissues of the vertebrate embryo is a term that refers collectively to the floor plate (a cell population that lies at the ventral floor of the neural tube) and the notochord (which is a mesodermal rod of cells located immediately ventral to the floor plate). The notochord and floor plate both secrete the morphogen signal Sonic Hedgehog (Shh) that patterns the dorsoventral axis of the...

Within the developing vertebrate nervous system, it is not known how progenitor cells interpret the positional information provided by inducing signals or how the domains in which distinct groups of neural cells differentiate are defined. Gli proteins may be involved in these processes. In the frog neural plate, we have previously shown that the zinc finger transcription factor Gli1 is expresse...
