zipper Nonmuscle myosin-II functions downstream of PS2 integrin in Drosophila myogenesis and is necessary for myofibril formation.

Developmental biology - 15 Nov 2001

Bloor J W, Kiehart D P

Abstract excerpt

Nonmuscle myosin-II is a key motor protein that drives cell shape change and cell movement. Here, we analyze the function of nonmuscle myosin-II during Drosophila embryonic myogenesis. We find that nonmuscle myosin-II and the adhesion molecule, PS2 integrin, colocalize at the developing muscle termini. In the paradigm emerging from cultured fibroblasts, nonmuscle actomyosin-II contractility, mediated by the small...
