Dynamics of BMP signaling and distribution during zebrafish dorsal-ventral patterning

Dynamics of BMP signaling and distribution during zebrafish dorsal-ventral patterning

During vertebrate embryogenesis, dorsal-ventral patterning is controlled by the BMP/Chordin activator/inhibitor system. BMP induces ventral fates, whereas Chordin inhibits BMP signaling on the dorsal side. Several theories can explain how the distributions of BMP and Chordin are regulated to achieve...
