Combined activities of Gurken and decapentaplegic specify dorsal chorion structures of the Drosophila egg.

Development (Cambridge, England) - 1 Feb 2000

Peri F, Roth S

Abstract excerpt

During Drosophila oogenesis Gurken, associated with the oocyte nucleus, activates the Drosophila EGF receptor in the follicular epithelium. Gurken first specifies posterior follicle cells, which in turn signal back to the oocyte to induce the migration of the oocyte nucleus from a posterior to an anterior-dorsal position. Here, Gurken signals again to specify dorsal follicle cells, which give rise to dorsal...
