Graphic representation of developmental clock (IMAGE)
Caption
A master clock made up of the proteins MYRF-1 and LIN-42 coordinates the timing and duration of gene expression pulses through each stage of development in the worm C. elegans. The clock ensures that each of four larval stages begins precisely when it should, lasts as long as needed, and never repeats.
