Abstract

Developing organisms can regulate and scale patterns to achieve consistent proportions despite immense changes in size. In this issue, Cao et al. build a model system, using engineered E. coli, to understand how regulatory dynamics can produce pattern scaling without the need for a morphogen gradient.
