The earliest cell movements that initiate gastrulation in the vertebrate embryo have always fascinated embryologists, but signals controlling this large-scale morphogenesis where nearly all cells move have been elusive. Reporting in Developmental Cell, Szabó et al. (2016) uncover a mechanism for morphogenesis based on complement system C3a/C3aR-directed chemotaxis.
