High impact information on snai2

Overexpression of the zinc finger transcription factor Slug, one of the earliest markers of neural crest formation, is insufficient for neural crest induction [1].

Biological context of snai2

slug gene expression is associated with the specification and migration of neural crest cells in the African clawed frog Xenopus laevis [2].
