In ascidian embryos, the maternally supplied Zic transcription factor Zic-r.a specifies posterior fate. A new paper in Development investigates the DNA recognition motifs by which Zic-r.a regulates target gene expression in distinct lineages of the embryo. To find out more about the work, we caught up with first author Izumi Oda-Ishii and her supervisor Yutaka Satou, Associate Professor at the Graduate School of Science, Kyoto University, Japan.
