Actin capping protein alpha maintains vestigial-expressing cells within the Drosophila wing disc epithelium.

Development (Cambridge, England) - 1 Sept 2006

Janody Florence, Treisman Jessica E

Abstract excerpt

Tissue patterning must be translated into morphogenesis through cell shape changes mediated by remodeling of the actin cytoskeleton. We have found that Capping protein alpha (Cpa) and Capping protein beta (Cpb), which prevent extension of the barbed ends of actin filaments, are specifically required in the wing blade primordium of the Drosophila wing disc. cpa or cpb mutant cells in this region, but not in the...
