Dusky-like functions as a Rab11 effector for the deposition of cuticle during Drosophila bristle development.

Development (Cambridge, England) - 1 Mar 2012

Nagaraj Ranganayaki, Adler Paul N

Abstract excerpt

The morphogenesis of Drosophila sensory bristles is dependent on the function of their actin and microtubule cytoskeleton. Actin filaments are important for bristle shape and elongation, while microtubules are thought to mediate protein and membrane trafficking to promote growth. We have identified an essential role for the bristle cuticle in the maintenance of bristle structure and shape at late stages of...
