Popis: Rhythmic patterning governs the formation of somites in vertebrates, but how the period of such rhythms can be changed is unclear. Here, the authors generate a genetic model in zebrafish to increase DeltaD expression, which increases the range of Delta-Notch signalling, causing faster segmentation.
