Evolutionary modification of AGS protein contributes to formation of micromeres in sea urchins
Micromeres in a sea urchin embryo are formed by asymetric cleavage but what molecular mechanisms regulate their formation is unclear. Here, the authors show that sea urchins modify an evolutionarily conserved AGS-dependent mechanism to induce asymmetric cell divisions in the early embryo.
