Generating patterns from fields of cells. Examples from Drosophila segmentationB Sanson
University of Cambridge, Department of Genetics, Downing Site, Cambridge CB2 3EH, UK
EMBO Rep 2:1083-8. 2001..This example from Drosophila provides a paradigm for how organizers generate precise patterns, and ultimately different cell types, in a naïve field of cells...
Compartments, wingless and engrailed: patterning the ventral epidermis of Drosophila embryosP A Lawrence
Medical Research Council, Laboratory of Molecular Biology, Cambridge, UK
Development 122:4095-103. 1996..Supporting the hypothesis that Wingless acts as a morphogen, we find that these stripes affect, at a distance, the type of cuticle formed and the planar polarity of the cells...
Uncoupling cadherin-based adhesion from wingless signalling in DrosophilaB Sanson
Medical Research Council, Laboratory of Molecular Biology, Cambridge, UK
Nature 383:627-30. 1996..We demonstrate that both constructs titrate Armadillo from a 'signalling' pool which is functionally distinct from the junctional pool...
Engrailed and hedgehog make the range of Wingless asymmetric in Drosophila embryosB Sanson
Department of Genetics, Cambridge University, United Kingdom
Cell 98:207-16. 1999..We demonstrate the role of hedgehog in the formation of this barrier...
