WASp is required for the correct temporal morphogenesis of rhabdomere microvilli.

The Journal of cell biology - 2 Feb 2004

Zelhof Andrew C, Hardy Robert W

Abstract excerpt

Microvilli are actin-based fingerlike membrane projections that form the basis of the brush border of enterocytes and the Drosophila melanogaster photoreceptor rhabdomere. Although many microvillar cytoskeletal components have been identified, the molecular basis of microvillus formation is largely undefined. Here, we report that the Wiskott-Aldrich syndrome protein (WASp) is necessary for rhabdomere microvillus...
