Abstract excerpt
Directed cell rearrangements occur during gastrulation, neurulation, and organ formation. Despite the identification of developmental processes in which invagination is a critical component of pattern formation, little is known regarding the underlying cellular and molecular details. Caenorhabditis elegans vulval epithelial cells undergo morphological changes that generate an invagination through the formation of...
