Cell shape and Wnt signaling redundantly control the division axis of C. elegans epithelial stem cells.

Development (Cambridge, England) - 1 Oct 2011

Wildwater Marjolein, Sander Nicholas, de Vreede Geert, van den Heuvel Sander

Abstract excerpt

Tissue-specific stem cells combine proliferative and asymmetric divisions to balance self-renewal with differentiation. Tight regulation of the orientation and plane of cell division is crucial in this process. Here, we study the reproducible pattern of anterior-posterior-oriented stem cell-like divisions in the Caenorhabditis elegans seam epithelium. In a genetic screen, we identified an alg-1 Argonaute mutant...
