Drosophila alpha-actinin in ovarian follicle cells is regulated by EGFR and Dpp signalling and required for cytoskeletal remodelling.

Mechanisms of development - 1 Nov 2006

Wahlström Gudrun, Norokorpi Hanna-Leena, Heino Tapio I

Abstract excerpt

alpha-Actinin is an evolutionarily conserved actin filament crosslinking protein with functions in both muscle and non-muscle cells. In non-muscle cells, interactions between alpha-actinin and its many binding partners regulate cell adhesion and motility. In Drosophila, one non-muscle and two muscle-specific alpha-actinin isoforms are produced by alternative splicing of a single gene. In wild-type ovaries,...
