Numb is not a critical regulator of Notch-mediated cell fate decisions in the developing chick inner ear
The Notch signalling pathway controls differentiation of hair cells and supporting cells in the vertebrate inner ear.Here, we have investigated whether Numb, a known regulator of Notch activity in Drosophila, is involved in this process in the embryonic chick.The chicken homologue of Numb is expressed throughout the otocyst at early stages of devel
