Research Abstract |
In this project, we charged mechanism of oscillatory gene expression in somite formation in vertebrate development. According to accumulated data of our molecular biological and biochemical experiments, we established a molecular model for the oscillatory gene expression. We analyzed this model by mathematical simulation in silico, and inspected it by molecular experiments. Our interdisciplinary approach revealed the mechanism of the oscillatory gene expression.
