Getting into shape: epidermal morphogenesis in Caenorhabditis elegans embryos Getting into shape: epidermal morphogenesis in Caenorhabditis elegans embryos Jeffrey S. Simske and Jeff Hardin* Summary The change in shape of the C. elegans embryo from an ovoid ball of cells into a worm-shaped larva is driven by three events within the cells of the hypodermis (epider- mis): (1) intercalation of two rows of dorsal cells, (2) enclosure of the ventral surface by hypodermis, and (3) elongation of the
