The BMP signaling gradient is interpreted through concentration thresholds in dorsal-ventral axial patterning.

Bone Morphogenetic Protein (BMP) patterns the dorsal-ventral (DV) embryonic axis in all vertebrates, but it is unknown how cells along the DV axis interpret and translate the gradient of BMP signaling into differential gene activation that will give rise to distinct cell fates. To determine the mech...
