... a mutant with a cluster of neurons. This occurs when there is a problem in Notch signaling.
Ordinarily, the sensory organ progenitor cell uses the Notch pathway to specify the fate of two daughter ...
... anywhere on earth and exist under the most varying conditions. If these tiny, microscopic organisms are to survive in these environments, they need to be able to rapidly detect changes in their ...
... scientists and their colleagues helps explain why we don't experience sights or sounds when there is no input to our sensory organs - even though our sense centers are functioning.
Sharks are repelled by magnets thanks to sensory organs for magnetic fields, offering a means of keeping them away from fishing nets, according to research.

... body structures during early development. Sens regulates downstream genes that support the development of sensory organs, such as those important to hearing, touch or sight.
Dr. Gebelein said the ...

... What we wanted to understand was, how can flies tell the difference between sound and wind using the same sensory organ?"
There were two possible answers to this question. The first was that a fly's ...
... freezing in place. They found that that the flies' wind-sensitive neurons exist in the same sensory organ in the flies' antennae as the neurons that process the sound of the song of a potential mate. ...
... said. "But as (University of Texas immunologist) Ed Blalock said in 1984, the immune system is a sensory organ. The immune system is exquisitely adapted as a sensory system to 'see' infectious agents ...
