Zinc transport activity of Fear of Intimacy is essential for proper gonad morphogenesis and DE-cadherin expression.

Development (Cambridge, England) - 1 Mar 2006

Mathews Wendy R, Ong Daniel, Milutinovich Allison B, Van Doren Mark

Abstract excerpt

Embryonic gonad formation involves intimate contact between germ cells and specialized somatic cells along with the complex morphogenetic movements necessary to create proper gonad architecture. Previously, we have shown that gonad formation in Drosophila requires the homophilic cell-adhesion molecule Drosophila E-cadherin (DE-cadherin), and also Fear of Intimacy (FOI), which is required for stable accumulation...
