Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: In many animals, embryonic patterning depends on a careful interplay between cell division and the segregation of localized cellular components. Both of these processes in turn rely on cytoskeletal elements and motor proteins. A type of localized cellular component found in most animals is the germ plasm, a specialized region of cytoplasm that specifies the germ-cell fate. The gene vasa has been shown...
