A β-importin promotes fusome growth and distribution in <i>Drosophila</i> ovarian germ cells

2025-03-13

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Germline cysts, or interconnected groups of germ cells, promote the synchronization of gamete development in vertebrates and invertebrates. In the Drosophila ovary, cyst formation is coordinated by the fusome, a unique endoplasmic reticulum-like organelle. Although many structural components of the fusome have been characterized, little is known about the genetic factors that control fusome gro...
