Adherens junction-dependent and -independent steps in the establishment of epithelial cell polarity in Drosophila.

The Journal of cell biology - 11 Oct 2004

Harris Tony J C, Peifer Mark

Abstract excerpt

Adherens junctions (AJs) are thought to be key landmarks for establishing epithelial cell polarity, but the origin of epithelial polarity in Drosophila remains unclear. Thus, we examined epithelial polarity establishment during early Drosophila development. We found apical accumulation of both Drosophila E-Cadherin (DE-Cad) and the apical cue Bazooka (Baz) as cells first form. Mutant analyses revealed that apical...
