Abstract
The expression of segmentation clock genes is self-oscillatory due to a delayed negative-feedback mechanism. Hubaud etal. (2017), reporting in Cell, now reveal that segmentation clock genes also exhibit properties of an excitable system, with Yap signaling setting the threshold for adopting an oscillatory state and Notch signaling triggering oscillations.
