Polo-like Kinase Couples Cytoplasmic Protein Gradients in the C. elegans Zygote

Intracellular protein gradients underlie essential cellular and developmental processes, but the mechanisms by which they are established are incompletely understood. During the asymmetric division of the C. elegans zygote, the RNA-binding protein MEX-5 forms an anterior-rich cytoplasmic gradient th...
