Cadherin Cad99C is required for normal microvilli morphology in Drosophila follicle cells.

Journal of cell science - 15 Mar 2006

Schlichting Karin, Wilsch-Bräuninger Michaela, Demontis Fabio, Dahmann Christian

Abstract excerpt

Microvilli are actin-filled membranous extensions common to epithelial cells. Several proteins have been identified that localize to microvilli. However, most of these proteins are dispensable for the normal morphogenesis of microvilli. Here, we show by immunoelectron microscopy that the non-classical cadherin Cad99C localizes to microvilli of Drosophila ovarian follicle cells. Loss of Cad99C function leads to...
