Urotensin II-related peptides, Urp1 and Urp2, control zebrafish spine morphology

The spine provides structure and support to the body, yet how it develops its characteristic morphology as the organism grows is little understood. This is underscored by the commonality of conditions in which the spine curves abnormally such as scoliosis, kyphosis, and lordosis. Understanding the o...
