The Flightless I Homolog, fli-1, Regulates Anterior/Posterior Polarity, Asymmetric Cell Division and Ovulation During Caenorhabditis elegans Development
25 Aug 2007
Abstract excerpt
Flightless I (Fli I) is an evolutionarily conserved member of the gelsolin family, containing actin-binding and severing activity in vitro. The physiological function of Fli I during animal development remains largely undefined. In this study, we reveal a key role of the Caenorhabditis elegans Fli I homolog, fli-1, in specifying asymmetric cell division and in establishing anterior-posterior polarity in the...
