Snail Chirality: The Unwinding.

Current biology : CB - 7 Mar 2016

Maderspacher Florian

Abstract excerpt

Most snails are coiled clockwise, but in some species rare genetic variants with reverse coiling occur. Now, a molecular determinant of coiling direction has been identified, the cytoskeletal regulator formin.
