The role of pax genes in vertebrate segmentation
Pax genes are involved in a range of processes in the developing embryo. Pax3 and Pax7 in particular are associated with the paraxial mesoderm, especially the development of the myogenic lineage. However, recent studies have suggested that Pax3 and Pax7 may have earlier, morphogenetic roles in the …

Novel Notch signalling dynamics within the molecular oscillator underlying vertebrate segmentation
… body plan is a conserved feature of all vertebrate species. It is established early in embryonic development by the formation of somites, epithelised balls of tissue from which many of the axial tissues of the adult organism are derived. Produced during the process of somitogenesis, …

Investigating the relationship between clock gene stability and the pace of the vertebrate segmentation clock
… and their formation relies on ordered and timely segmentation during early embryonic development. Somites form as they ‘pinch’ away from the pre-somitic mesoderm (PSM) with a species-specific periodicity, coinciding with waves of cycling mRNA expression of ‘clock’ genes sweeping across the PSM …

The Regulation of Segmentation Clock Period in Zebrafish
… patterning of growing tissues, as is the case in vertebrate somitogenesis, and potentially also in vertebrate limb outgrowth and axial segmentation of invertebrate embryos. During vertebrate segmentation, the embryonic axis is subdivided along its anterior-posterior axis into epithelial spheres of …
