Losing their minds: Mena/VASP/EVL triple knockout mice

Dev Cell. 2007 Dec;13(6):757-8. doi: 10.1016/j.devcel.2007.11.007.

Abstract

A recent Neuron paper by Kwiatkowski et al. that analyzes the phenotypes of mouse embryos lacking all members of the Ena/VASP family reveals new roles for these molecules in cortical development.
