Fig. 6. Model for a morphogenetic mechanism in fission yeast. Microtubules transport Tea1 to cell ends where it recruits a spontaneous cell-polarization module. This module comprises a short-range activator, promoting growth zone formation, and a long-range lateral inhibitory component that prevents growth zone formation.
