Cell biology of planar polarity transmission in the Drosophila wing.

Mechanisms of development - 1 Nov 2003

Eaton Suzanne

Abstract excerpt

The coordination of epithelial planar polarization is a critical step in the formation of well-ordered tissues. The process has been extensively studied in Drosophila, where genetic analysis has identified a set of "tissue polarity" genes that serve to coordinate planar polarity of cells in the developing wings, bristles and eyes. In the last several years, it has emerged that six of these genes encode junctional...
