The paper identifies SEMA3E-PLXND1 signaling as critical for melanocyte migration and establishment, revealing its role in pigment patterning through F-actin modulation and transcriptional responses.

This study identifies Mgat4b as a regulator of melanocyte development and melanoma progression through N-glycosylation, showing its role in cell migration, adhesion, and tumor initiation.

This study identifies H2a.z.2 as a histone variant that biases neural crest cells toward the melanocyte lineage by enhancing Mitf promoter activation.
