Model for mesendoderm induction in zebrafish.
As described in the main text: (1) vg1 mRNA is inherited from the mother, and is ubiquitous in the early embryo; (2) Vg1 protein is synthesized ubiquitously and retained predominantly in the ER; (3) cyc and sqt are transcribed and translated in the YSL; (4) Cyc and Sqt form heterodimers with Vg1, resulting in Vg1 secretion and cleavage; (5) Cyc-Vg1 and Sqt-Vg1 heterodimers activate the Nodal signaling pathway to induce mesendoderm.
