摘要

The asymmetric cell division is crucial during developmentand to produce self-renewing stem cells. A largebody of work on Drosophila and C. elegans suggests thatthis process occurs by non-equivalent distribution of proteinsand/or mRNA (intrinsic factors) to daughter cells, orby their differential exposure to cell extrinsic factors. Incontrast, strictly based on template “Watson” versus“Crick” strand inherited from the parental cell, haploid fissionyeast sister cells developmentally differ by inheritingsister chromatids that are differentiated by epigeneticmeans. Specifically, the double helical structure of DNA isthe ultimate determinant of asymmetric cell division. Toemploy this kind of mechanism for cellular differentiationin diploid organisms, selective segregation must occur forpartitioning epigenetically differentiated sister chromatidsfrom both chomosome homologs to specific daughtercells, at a specific cell division, during multicelluar organismdevelopment. We previously proposed that SomaticSister chromatid Imprinting and Selective chromatid Segregation(SSIS) model might explain development ineukaryotes, such as that of the body left-right axis lateralityspecification in mice and brain laterality in humans. However,for technical reasons, it is impossible to determinewhether such a mechanism operates during embryonicdevelopment in higher organisms.
