The Drosophila homolog of the Exo84 exocyst subunit promotes apical epithelial identityJ Todd Blankenship
Developmental Biology Program, Sloan Kettering Institute, 1275 York Avenue, New York, NY 10021, USA
J Cell Sci 120:3099-110. 2007..These results suggest that epithelial polarity in the Drosophila embryo is actively maintained by exocyst-dependent apical localization of the Crumbs transmembrane protein...
Rho-kinase directs Bazooka/Par-3 planar polarity during Drosophila axis elongationSérgio de Matos Simões
Developmental Biology Program, Sloan Kettering Institute, 1275 York Avenue, New York, NY 10065, USA
Dev Cell 19:377-88. 2010..These results demonstrate that Rho-kinase plays an instructive role in planar polarity by targeting Baz/Par-3 and myosin II to complementary cortical domains...
Multicellular rosette formation links planar cell polarity to tissue morphogenesisJ Todd Blankenship
Developmental Biology Program, Sloan Kettering Institute, New York, New York 10021, USA
Dev Cell 11:459-70. 2006..We propose that the generation of higher-order rosette structures links local cell interactions to global tissue reorganization during morphogenesis...
Multicellular dynamics during epithelial elongationJennifer A Zallen
Developmental Biology Program, Sloan Kettering Institute, New York, NY 10065, USA
Semin Cell Dev Biol 19:263-70. 2008..Quantitative analysis of cell behavior in living embryos reveals unexpected cell population dynamics that include the formation of multicellular rosette structures as well as local neighbor exchange...
