Model captures border cell cluster migration features in Drosophila
What the study found A biophysically informed phase-field model reproduced key features of border cell cluster migration in the Drosophila melanogaster egg chamber. The model included a contact-mediated propulsion mechanism called Tangential Interface Migration (TIM) and captured motion shaped by tissue geometry and chemical cues. Why the authors say this matters The authors conclude that…
Review highlights histone marks in C. elegans embryonic cell cycle
Explore histone modifications during C. elegans embryonic cell division, examining H4K20me1, H3S10ph, and other epigenetic marks that regulate chromatin dynamics and mitotic progression.
Choanoflagellate multicellularity can arise by clonal and aggregative routes
—
in Cell biologyChoanoeca flexa choanoflagellate uses both clonal and aggregative mechanisms to form reversible multicellular sheets, challenging conventional understanding of multicellular evolution.
