Developmental neurobiology:  Decoding the Reelin signal

Isabelle Bar1 & André M. Goffinet1

Back in 1995, the reeler gene was cloned and its protein product was christened Reelin1. Since then, the Reelin signalling pathway — which is involved in brain development — has been progressively unravelled.
