Diagram of a posterior view of the Left-Right organizer and its functions. Motile cilia (green) create a leftward flow of fluid over the cleft. This leftward flow activated primary cilia (red) on the left half of the cleft resulting in the opening of polycystin calcium channels. Calcium influx inhibits a protein Coco leading to activation of Nodal signaling.
