Uncovering the clock that sets the speed of embryo development Posted: 17 Sep 2020 03:13 PM PDT Why do pregnancies last longer in some species than others? Researchers have found the clock that sets the speed of embryonic development and discovered the mechanism is based on how proteins are made and dismantled. The study could also help us understand how different mammals evolved from one another and help refine methods for regenerative medicine. |
Humans develop more slowly than mice because our chemistry is different Posted: 17 Sep 2020 03:12 PM PDT Scientists have found that the 'segmentation clock' -- a genetic network that governs the body pattern formation of embryos -- progresses more slowly in humans than in mice because the biochemical reactions are slower in human cells. The differences in the speeds of biochemical reactions may underlie differences between species in the tempo of development. |
