Abstract

It has long been appreciated that the oocyte cortex plays a key role in regulating fertilization and establishing embryonic polarity. Recent studies have identifed the anti-phosphatase EGG-3 as a cortical anchor for regulatory proteins required for launching embryogenesis in Caenhorhabditis elegans.
