Article Synopsis
  • The C. elegans zygote undergoes asymmetric cleavage to form two distinct blastomeres, AB and P1, which develop into different cell lineages.
  • By analyzing RNA from these blastomeres through RNA-seq and smFISH, researchers identified over 200 mRNA transcripts with varying abundance between the two cells and observed unique subcellular patterns.
  • Additionally, certain transcripts, like neg-1, were linked to specific embryonic functions, aiding in understanding post-transcriptional mechanisms that regulate mRNA levels during crucial cell divisions in embryonic development.
