Tissue polarity genes of Drosophila regulate the subcellular location for prehair initiation in pupal wing cells.

The Journal of cell biology - 1 Oct 1993

Wong L L, Adler P N

Abstract excerpt

The Drosophila wing is decorated with a regular array of distally pointing hairs. In the pupal wing, the hairs are formed from micro-villus like prehairs that contain large bundles of actin filaments. The distal orientation of the actin bundles reveals the proximal-distal polarity within the pupal wing epithelium. We have used F-actin staining to examine early stages of prehair development in both wild-type and...
