Excitable Dynamics and Yap-Dependent Mechanical Cues Drive the Segmentation Clock.
The periodic segmentation of the vertebrate body axis into somites, and later vertebrae, relies on a genetic oscillator (the segmentation clock) driving the rhythmic activity of signaling pathways in the presomitic mesoderm (PSM). To understand whether oscillations are an intrinsic property of individual cells or represent a population-level phenomenon, we established culture conditions for sta...
متن کاملTopology and Dynamics of the Zebrafish Segmentation Clock Core Circuit
During vertebrate embryogenesis, the rhythmic and sequential segmentation of the body axis is regulated by an oscillating genetic network termed the segmentation clock. We describe a new dynamic model for the core pace-making circuit of the zebrafish segmentation clock based on a systematic biochemical investigation of the network's topology and precise measurements of somitogenesis dynamics in...
متن کاملDynamics of the influence of segmentation cues on orientation perception
Contextual effects abound in vision. The tilt illusion (TI) is an example-a tilted surrounding annulus causes a vertical central pattern to appear rotated away from the surround. We investigate the dynamics of this effect by presenting components of the stimulus asynchronously. At equal contrast, the largest illusion occurs when centre and surround are presented simultaneously. We vary the spat...
متن کاملMechanical Stress and Network Structure Drive Protein Dynamics during Cytokinesis
Cell-shape changes associated with processes like cytokinesis and motility proceed on several-second timescales but are derived from molecular events, including protein-protein interactions, filament assembly, and force generation by molecular motors, all of which occur much faster [1-4]. Therefore, defining the dynamics of such molecular machinery is critical for understanding cell-shape regul...
متن کاملTiming Embryo Segmentation: Dynamics and Regulatory Mechanisms of the Vertebrate Segmentation Clock
All vertebrate species present a segmented body, easily observed in the vertebrate column and its associated components, which provides a high degree of motility to the adult body and efficient protection of the internal organs. The sequential formation of the segmented precursors of the vertebral column during embryonic development, the somites, is governed by an oscillating genetic network, t...
