Smad-Independent BMP Signaling in Somatic Cells Limits the Size of the Germline Stem Cell Pool

Summary: In developing organisms, proper tuning of the number of stem cells within a niche is critical for the maintenance of adult tissues; however, the involved mechanisms remain largely unclear. Here, we demonstrate that Thickveins (Tkv), a type I bone morphogenetic protein (BMP) receptor, acts i...
