Abstract:
The signaling pathways and cellular mechanisms that achieve alignment of dorsal and ventral midline structures remain a poorly understood aspect of vertebrate development. In this issue of Developmental Cell, Arraf et al. (2016) find a requisite role for bilaterally symmetrical BMP signaling in coordinating dorsal and ventral tissue morphogenesis.
