Anterior-posterior polarity in the Caenorhabditis elegans zygote depends on two groups of PAR proteins, as well as on cortical flow. Recent work now demonstrates that this polarization results from a transition in a bistable reaction-diffusion system of PAR proteins that is triggered by cortical flow.
秀丽隐杆线虫合子的前后极性依赖于两组 PAR 蛋白以及皮质流。最近的工作表明，这种极化是由 PAR 蛋白的双稳态反应扩散系统的转变引起的，而这种转变是由皮质流触发的。
