Read moreSingle-Cell Protein Atlas of Transcription Factors in C. elegans embryo
For the first time Zhuo Du et al. correlate mRNA and protein expression in C. elegans embryo to build the first embryo protein mapping. After ...
Read moreA Waddington Epigenetic Landscape for the C. elegans embryo
C.elegans embryonic development uses redundant genes and are epigenetically shaped by parental adaptations to survive. Conrad Hal Waddington (1905-1975) developed his “Waddington Epigenetic Landscape” model ...

Role of Daf-2 insulin signaling in the embryonic elongation of C. elegans, a daf-2 loss of function seems to vary according to the allele ...
Read moreA lineage-resolved molecular atlas of C. elegans embryogenesis at single-cell resolution
A fundamental breakthrough in the understanding of development through the realization of the complete transcriptome of C. elegans, from the embryo to the terminal ...
Read moreThe size a ruling element in embryo to determine the fate and the function, suggesting cells are sensing size and can make decisions based on it
During early embryonic development polarity and asymmetric division are essential elements. In this paper Lars Hubatch et al. showed the significance of cell size in stem ...
Read moreCentrosome Aurora A regulates RhoGEF ECT-2 localisation and ensures a single PAR-2 polarity axis in C. elegans embryos
Research has already shown a proper establishment of cell polarity is vital for several events during development stages and morphogenesis. This paper from Sukriti ...
Read moreAsymmetric cell division in C. elegans
Asymmetric cell division occurs when one cell gives rise to two daughter cells with distinct cellular fate, function and, sometimes, different size. Asymmetric division ...
