In this issue of Developmental Cell, Zhao et al. (2019) show that the Aurora A kinase AIR-1 is the long-sought cue that downregulates cortical actomyosin to establish anterior-posterior polarity in the C. elegans zygote, diffusing from centrosomes to the overlying cortex to phosphorylate yet to be identified target(s).
在本期《发育细胞》中,Zhao 等人(2019 年)表明,Aurora A 激酶 AIR-1 是长期寻求的线索,可下调皮质肌动球蛋白以在 C. elegans 合子中建立前后极性,从中心体扩散到上面的皮质以磷酸化尚未确定的靶标。
