| Research Abstract |
We hypothesize that CASK signal affects cleft palate formation because CASK knock out mouse has cleft palate. To clarify this signal we identified the candidate molecules that associate with CASK by using Q-TOF LC/MS. We selected Neurexin as a signal transduction molecule, then adherent domain and interaction between molecules was analyzed. In addition CASK flox/flox mouse was analyzed and estimated the role of CASK in cleft palate formation. On the other hand we developed a new method which evaluate morphological similarity to use mouse facial deformity.
