title: Vertebrate development: Et in Arkadia.
abstract: The similarities in organiser formation in Xenopus and mouse embryos have remained elusive. Recent evidence suggests a common mechanism, in which an intracellular protein, Arkadia, is required for formation of the mouse organiser and potentiates the effects of the signalling protein Nodal.
