The authors profile H2AK119ub (H2Aub) in human gametes, two-cell embryos, eight-cell embryos, blastocysts and human embryonic stem cells. Their analysis provides a comprehensive view of H2Aub ...

A new study has mapped human urogenital development in its native spatial context, revealing how neighboring organs ...

The Colon-Ramos lab is interested in studying how synapses form. We use the nematode C. elegans as our model system, focusing specifically on the development of synapses between two neurons, the AIY ...

How does a tiny cluster of cells become an embryo with a head, trunk, and tail? And how do thousands of genes coordinate this development? A new imaging method makes it possible to visualize the ...

Somatic embryogenesis is a process by which differentiated plant cells are induced to form bipolar structures equivalent to zygotic embryos. Initiation typically involves the excision of an ...

Embryonic development, also known as embryogenesis, is a cornerstone in understanding the origins of life. But studying this marvel of intricate and layered biological processes in people faces ...

A controlled study in three slash pine lines found that optimized ratios of five nitrogen sources promoted somatic embryo maturation and shifted associated enzyme activity toward nitrogen assimilation ...
