| Researchers at Columbia University are continuing to manipulate the proteins, mutating them in the worms and then looking at the consequences. They’re interested in understanding the underlying logic of how a complex lineage is built.They found that the proteins regulate the intracellular trafficking of the BMP receptors for cell-cell signalling. Normally the receptors are internalised to certain types of vesicles inside the cell and then recycled back to the surface to allow proper signalling. Columbia University is a NYSERNet member.
