Signalling in single cell wound healing
A single cell, such as a frog egg, is able to repair injuries by orchestrating a localized signalling response on the plasma membrane. Proteins called Rho GTPases are recruited to, and form patterns around, the wound site. Patterning allows testable hypotheses to be made about the structure of the s...
