IFITM1-mediated cell repulsion controls the initial steps of germ cell migration in the mouse

Abstract

In this issue of Developmental Cell, a novel mechanism for the initiation of germ cell migration in the mouse has been identified, based upon differential expression of interferon-inducible transmembrane proteins in the gastrula (Tanaka et al., 2005). Germ cells are displaced by a repulsion mechanism from the posterior mesoderm into the endoderm.
