    August 2014 in “ The Anatomical Record ”
    Lorenzo Alibardi, Veronika Mlitz, Leopold Eckhart
    Studysummary The researchers reported that scaffoldin, a protein identified in chicken embryos, likely plays a role in forming periderm granules and contributes to the soft cornification of embryonic epidermis.
