Their work reveals the secrets of the Balbiani body (Bb), a remarkable structure that organizes essential molecules to guide early embryonic development. Using zebrafish models and cutting-edge ...

Is there only one optimal configuration an organism can reach during evolution? Is there a single formula that describes the trajectory towards the optimum? And can we 'derive' it in a purely ...

However, gastrulation, the period beyond this cutoff, represents when the embryo begins to form the eventual body plan, making it an interesting stage to understand early organogenesis. “We’ve just ...

They observed a clear correlation between less OGT activity and more severe effects on embryonic development. Their results showed that OGT played an important catalytic role, and it wasn't just ...

Scientists have uncovered a key mechanism in jellyfish embryos that provides new insights into how the body plan of these ...
