Somite Specification

Somite Specification is a developmental biology process that denotes the determination of segmental units along the anterior-posterior axis of the vertebrate embryo, distinguished by the spatiotemporal patterning of mesodermal progenitor cells into discrete, lineage-restricted compartments through regulated gene expression and signaling dynamics.
