Descriptor English: Nodal Signaling Ligands
Descriptor Spanish: Ligandos de Señalización Nodal
Descriptor ligandos de señalización nodal
Scope note: Miembros de la superfamilia de factores de crecimiento transformantes que participan en la formación del patrón y en la diferenciación durante las etapas de pregastrulación y GASTRULACIÓN de los cordados. Varios ligandos de señalización nodal están específicamente involucrados en la génesis de la asimetría izquierda-derecha durante el desarrollo. El nombre de la familia de proteínas proviene de una región crítica de la LÍNEA PRIMITIVA de los embriones vertebrados denominada NÓDULO DE HENSEN.

Scope note: Members of the transforming growth factor superfamily that play a role in pattern formation and differentiation during the pregastrulation and GASTRULATION stages of chordate development. Several nodal signaling ligands are specifically involved in the genesis of left-right asymmetry during development. The protein group is named after a critical region of the vertebrate embryo PRIMITIVE STREAK referred to as HENSEN'S NODE.
