Abstract excerpt
The construction of cell hairs (trichomes) on the wings of Drosophila occurs in synchrony on 30,000 cells over a period of about 20 hr. Changes in both morphology and patterns of protein synthesis occur rapidly during this time period. In this report we describe the use of stress-induced (heat sh...
