Additive effects on craniofacial development upon conditional ablation of PDGFRα and SHP2 in the mouse neural crest lineage
Background
Activity of the receptor tyrosine kinase PDGFRα and the tyrosine phosphatase SHP2 is critical for vertebrate craniofacial development. SHP2 has been shown to both positively and negativel.....
