Nature. 417:2002;411-418 This study shows that growth cones undergo periods of desensitization and resensitization during migration through a gradient of guidance cues. The resensitization phase requires protein synthesis within the growth cone.

Cell. 110:2002;223-235 The authors find that sequences in the 3′ UTR restrict the expression of EphA2 to segments of axons that have already crossed the midline by regulating the local translation of EphA2 mRNAs within the axon.
