Patterning the Mud Snail Ilyanassa obsoleta: The Role of Cell Signaling and Asymmetric Protein Localization

The polar lobe of Ilyanassa is asymmetrically partitioned into the D lineage of cells. Two of these cells, 3D and 4d, induce proper axial cell fate patterning in the embryo. Based on known embryological data in Ilyanassa, I hypothesized that Notch signaling would be required for this induction. I fo...
