Follicle cell contact maintains main body axis polarity in the <i>Drosophila melanogaster</i> oocyte
2022-03-04
Abstract excerpt
In Drosophila melanogaster the anterior-posterior body axis is maternally established and governed by differential localization of partitioning defective (Par) proteins within the oocyte. At mid-oogenesis, Par-1 accumulates at the posterior end of the oocyte while Par-3/Bazooka is excluded there but maintains its localization along the remaining oocyte cortex. This mutual exclusion leads to a polarized microtubul...
