Abstract excerpt
The apoptotic phenotype is characterised by dynamic changes in cell behaviours such as cell rounding and blebbing, followed by chromatin condensation and cell fragmentation. Whereas the biochemical pathways leading to caspase activation have been actively studied, much less is known about how caspase activity changes cell behaviours during apoptosis. Here, we address this question using early Drosophila...
