Rere controls retinoic acid signalling and somite bilateral symmetry.

Whole-somite rotation generates muscle progenitor cell compartments in the developing zebrafish embryo.

Do they contribute to somite differentiation or scaling?
From the nature.com
In zebrafish, it takes 30 minutes, while in mice each somite forms in two hours and in humans, five hours.

The shell around each somite can be divided into a dorsal tergum, ventral sternum and a lateral pleuron.

Mice mutated for the Rere gene show the same retarded somite formation as mice which are deficient in retinoic acid.

- Metamere: one of a series of similar body segments into which some animals are divided longitudinally
- A somite (or primitive segment in older texts) is a division of the body of an animal. In vertebrates this is mainly discernible in the embryo stage, in arthropods it is a characteristic of a hypothetical ancestor.
- (somites) SOH-mites/ Blocks of mesoderm along the sides of a chordate embryo.
- (somites) Blocks of tissue in the trunk derived from the originally unsegmented paraxial mesoderm.
- (somites) Mesodermal structures formed during embryonic development that give rise to segmented body parts such as the muscles of the body wall.
- Block of dorsal mesodermal cells adjacent to the notochord during vertebrate organogenesis. These transient structures define the segmental pattern of the embryo, and subsequently give rise to vertebrae and ribs, dermis of the back, and skeletal muscles of the back, body wall and limbs.
- Greek soma = body, hence an embryonic body segment.
- One of the paired blocklike masses of mesoderm, arranged segmentally alongside the neural tube of the embryo, forming the vertebral column and segmental musculature; called also mesoblastic or mesodermal segment.
- A body segment; especially, in vertebrates, a segment in the early embryo.
