| - | The Nodal signaling pathway is a signal transduction pathway important in regional and cellular differentiation during embryonic development. The Nodal family of proteins, a subset of the [[transforming growth factor beta (TGFβ) superfamily]], is responsible for mesoendoderm induction, patterning of the nervous system, and determination of dorsal- ventral axis in vertebrate embryos. Activation of the Nodal pathway involves nodal binding to activin and activin-like receptors which leads to phosphorylation of the Smad2. | + | The Nodal signaling pathway is a signal transduction pathway important in regional and cellular differentiation during embryonic development.
