The vertebrate body forms from a multipotent stem cell-like progenitor population that contributes newly differentiated cells to the posterior end of the embryo. Here, in vivo analyses show that proliferation is compartmentalized at the posterior end of the zebrafish embryo via regulated expression of mitotic factor Cdc25a. Furthermore, compartmentalization of proliferation during embryogenesis is critical to both body extension and muscle cell fate. This study reveals an unexpected link between precise regulation of the cell cycle and differentiation from multipotency in the vertebrate embryo. The vertebrate body forms from a multipotent stem cell-like progenitor population that progressively contributes newly differentiated cells to the most posterior end of the embryo. How the progenitor population balances proliferation and other cellular functions is unknown due to the difficulty of analyzing cell division in vivo. Here, we show that proliferation is compartmentalized at the posterior end of the embryo during early zebrafish development by the regulated expression of cdc25a, a key controller of mitotic entry. Through the use of a transgenic line that misexpresses cdc25a, we show that this compartmentalization is critical for the formation of the posterior body. Upon misexpression of cdc25a, several essential T-box transcription factors are abnormally expressed, including Spadetail/Tbx16, which specifically prevents the normal onset of myoD transcription, leading to aberrant muscle formation. Our results demonstrate that compartmentalization of proliferation during early embryogenesis is critical for both extension of the vertebrate body and differentiation of the multipotent posterior progenitor cells to the muscle cell fate.
