Expression of growth/differentiation factor 1 in the nervous system: conservation of a bicistronic structure.

How researchers see this paper

The researchers whose trusted networks rank it highest, strongest advocate first. Every researcher gets a different order.

Mammalian Ceramide Synthases (2010, background): “In 1991, a mammalian gene, upstream of growth and differentiation factor-1 (UOG-1), was discovered while screening for transforming growth factor-b family members, and was found to be expressed as part of a bicistronic RNA together with growth/differentiation factor-1 (gdf1) (16).”
Roles of bioactive sphingolipids in cancer biology and therapeutics. (2008, background): “The discovery of the mouse homologue of LAG1, also known as LASS1, or the upstream of growth and differentiation factor 1 (UOG1) (Lee, 1991; Venkataraman et al., 2002), demonstrated that it specifically regulates the synthesis of C18-ceramide with a high degree of fatty-acid chain length specificity”
Genetic Analysis of the Mammalian Transforming Growth Factor-β Superfamily (2002, background): “In late-stage embryos and adult mice, the expression of Gdf1 is restricted to the nervous system (186).”
