This project explores the mechanisms of cortical polarity in cells, particularly in the C.elegans embryo. By studying the dynamics of polarity proteins, the research aims to understand how these proteins contribute to the formation and maintenance of distinct cellular domains during development.
Throughout biology, from a single-celled bacterium developing into a mother cell and endospore, to the differentiation of gut epithelium in higher eukaryotes and even the morphological changes required in the generation of neurons within the human brain, the ability of a cell to generate intrinsic asymmetry plays a crucial role in development.
In higher eukaryotes, this ability to polarize requires the establishment within the cell cortex of domains, which acquire distinct molecular and functio…
