Bicaudal-D is essential for egg chamber formation and cytoskeletal organization in drosophila oogenesis.

Developmental biology - 1 Apr 2001

Oh J, Steward R

Abstract excerpt

Bicaudal-D (Bic-D) is required for the transport of determinant mRNAs and proteins to the presumptive oocyte, an essential step in the differentiation of the oocyte. Bic-D protein contains four well-defined heptad repeat domains characteristic of intermediate filament proteins. We characterized the ovarian phenotypes of females expressing mutant Bic-D proteins (Bic-D(H)) deleted for each of the heptad repeat...
