Bilaterally Asymmetric Helical Myofibrils in Ascidian Tadpole Larvae
The locomotor system is highly bilateral at the macroscopic level.Homochirality of biological molecules is fully compatible with the bilateral body.However, whether and how single-handed cells contribute to the bilateral locomotor system is obscure.Here, exploiting the small number of cells in the swimming tadpole larva of the ascidian Ciona, we an
