The cells of the neural plate are characterized by expression of the Sox family of transcription factors (Sox1, 2, and 3). These factors-

#Unit 5. Developmental Biology
  1. Activate the genes that specify cells to be neural plate and inhibit the formation of epidermis and neural crest by blocking the transcription and signaling of BMPs.
  2. Inhibit the genes that specify cells to be neural plate and activate the formation of epidermis and neural crest by blocking the transcription and signaling of BMPs.
  3. Activate the genes that specify cells to be neural plate as well as formation of epidermis and neural crest.
  4. Inhibits both the genes that specify cells to be neural plate as well as formation of epidermis and neural crest.
