Painting a Clearer Picture of Chromatin.

abstract：:Axon guidance at the Drosophila midline relies on dynamic regulation of the guidance receptor Robo by its negative regulator Comm. Recent findings demonstrate that Comm collaborates with the ubiquitin-protein ligase DNedd4 to inhibit Robo signaling by promoting the sorting of Robo into the endocytic pathway. ...
