#1
Front (Question)
Where are BMPS expressed?
Back (Answer)
Surface ectoderm cells
#2
Front (Question)
What do BMPS induce?
Back (Answer)
Neural plate border cells Roof plate cells
#3
Front (Question)
What do BMPs do?
Back (Answer)
Induce expression of -Pax6, Pax7, Pax3- cause cells to acquire dorsal identities

#6
Front (Question)
What does Shh do?
Back (Answer)
Ventralising the neural tube
#7
Front (Question)
What are class 1 genes?
Back (Answer)
Pax7, Dbx1, Dbx 2 etc.- suppressed and confined to the dorsal part of the neural tube by Shh
#8
Front (Question)
