Dev Biol 297:461-70. 2006..Generating a boundary by the Notch pathway might constitute an evolutionarily conserved first step during organ formation in many tissues...
Juxtaposition between two cell types is necessary for dorsal appendage tube formationEllen J Ward
Department of Genome Sciences, University of Washington, Box 357730, Seattle, WA 98195 7730, USA
Mech Dev 122:241-55. 2005..We propose that signaling across a boundary separating the rho-lacZ and Broad cells choreographs the cell shape-changes and rearrangements necessary to transform an initially flat epithelium into a tube...

Development 129:4423-33. 2002..Together, these results provide the first evidence that PKA localization is required for morphogenesis of actin structures in an intact organism...
Division of labor: subsets of dorsal-appendage-forming cells control the shape of the entire tubeMichael J Boyle
Department of Genome Sciences, University of Washington, Seattle, WA 98195 5065, USA
Dev Biol 346:68-79. 2010..Gbeta mutant floor cells are unable to control the width of the appendage while Gbeta mutant leading roof cells fail to direct the elongation of the appendage and the convergent-extension of the roof-cell population...
The Drosophila female sterile mutation twin peaks is a novel allele of tramtrack and reveals a requirement for Ttk69 in epithelial morphogenesisRachael L French
Program in Genetics, Department of Genome Sciences, University of Washington, Box 357730, Seattle, Washington, 98195 7730, USA
Dev Biol 253:18-35. 2003..We hypothesize that loss of Ttk69 in all follicle cells disrupts chorion gene expression and lack of function in dorsal anterior follicle cells inhibits morphogenetic changes required for elongating the dorsal appendages...
Control in time and space: Tramtrack69 cooperates with Notch and Ecdysone to repress ectopic fate and shape changes during Drosophila egg chamber maturationMichael J Boyle
Molecular and Cellular Biology Program, University of Washington, Box 355065, Seattle, WA 98195 5065, USA
Development 136:4187-97. 2009..We hypothesize that TTK69 then cooperates with spatially restricted co-factors to define appropriate responses to a globally available (but as yet unidentified) temporal signal that initiates the S10B transformations...

- Regulation of tubulogenesis in the Drosophila ovaryCELESTE BERG; Fiscal Year: 2009..Organ failure is an increasing burden on our health care system. The development of replacement tissues is the goal of tissue engineers, who would benefit by a detailed understanding of the normal mechanisms that make and shape tubes. ..
