The transmembrane protein Kon-tiki couples to Dgrip to mediate myotube targeting in Drosophila.

Developmental cell - 1 May 2007

Schnorrer Frank, Kalchhauser Irene, Dickson Barry J

Abstract excerpt

Directed cell migration and target recognition are critical for the development of both the nervous and muscular systems. Molecular mechanisms that control these processes in the nervous system have been intensively studied, whereas those that act during muscle development are still largely uncharacterized. Here we identify a transmembrane protein, Kon-tiki (Kon), that mediates myotube target recognition in the...
