Ever wondered how metabolism regulates embryonic development? Our recent work demonstrates that metabolism has a signaling module controlling the tempo of embryonic axis segmentation.

How does the #embryo build the backbone? We found that blocking a tiny molecular switch, Rac1, slows the #segmentation clock, and alters the size of spine segments. This could explain why people with #VACTERL syndrome have spinal defects…#preprint 👉 biorxiv.org/content/10.110…
