Lewis Sigler Institute for Integrative Genomics, Princeton University, Princeton, New Jersey 08544, USA
Cell 130:141-52. 2007..A new model is presented emphasizing the possible role of nuclear dynamics in shaping and scaling the gradient...
Probing the limits to positional informationThomas Gregor

Shape and function of the Bicoid morphogen gradient in dipteran species with different sized embryosThomas Gregor
Howard Hughes Medical Institute, Princeton University, Princeton, NJ 08544, USA
Dev Biol 316:350-8. 2008..However, a shallow gradient was observed using eGFP-NLS, suggesting nuclear localization may be necessary but not sufficient for gradient formation...
The formation of the Bicoid morphogen gradient requires protein movement from anteriorly localized mRNAShawn C Little
Howard Hughes Medical Institute, Department of Molecular Biology, Princeton University, Princeton, New Jersey, United States of America
PLoS Biol 9:e1000596. 2011..We conclude that the spatial distribution of bicoid mRNA contributes to, but cannot account for, protein gradient formation, and therefore that protein movement, either active or passive, is required for gradient formation...
Diffusion and scaling during early embryonic pattern formationThomas Gregor
Howard Hughes Medical Institute, Lewis Sigler Institute for Integrative Genomics, Princeton University, Princeton, NJ 08544, USA
Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A 102:18403-7. 2005..Our results, together with constraints imposed by the time scales of development, suggest that the mechanism for scaling is a species-specific adaptation of the Bcd lifetime...

PLoS ONE 3:e2774. 2008....
Sorting sloppy sonicShawn C Little
Department of Molecular Biology and Howard Hughes Medical Institute, Princeton University, Princeton, NJ 08544, USA
Cell 153:509-10. 2013..Xiong et al. now provide evidence for an alternate strategy-cells of the zebrafish neural tube actively sort to their correct positions following disordered specification by Sonic hedgehog...
