摘要
Three genes, ced-2, ced-5, and ced-10, are required for both cell corpse engulfment and distal tip cell migration in C. elegans. Recently, a fourth gene, ced-12, has been identified that is required for these two processes. ced-12 encodes a novel, conserved adaptor molecule involved in the activation of Rho/Rac/CDC42-like GTPases.
