Differential expression of the adhesion molecule Echinoid drives epithelial morphogenesis in Drosophila.

Development (Cambridge, England) - 1 Aug 2006

Laplante Caroline, Nilson Laura A

Abstract excerpt

Epithelial morphogenesis requires cell movements and cell shape changes coordinated by modulation of the actin cytoskeleton. We identify a role for Echinoid (Ed), an immunoglobulin domain-containing cell-adhesion molecule, in the generation of a contractile actomyosin cable required for epithelial morphogenesis in both the Drosophila ovarian follicular epithelium and embryo. Analysis of ed mutant follicle cell...
