MRCK-1 Drives Apical Constriction in C. elegans by Linking Developmental Patterning to Force Generation
Apical constriction is a change in cell shape that drives key morphogenetic events including gastrulation and neural tube formation. Apical force-producing actomyosin networks drive apical constriction by contracting while connected to cell-cell junctions. The mechanisms by which developmental patterning regulates these actomyosin networks and associated junctions with spatial precision are not...
متن کاملNanometer-Scale Patterning on PMMA Resist by Force Microscopy Lithography
Nanoscale science and technology has today mainly focused on the fabrication of nano devices. In this paper, we study the use of lithography process to build the desired nanostructures directly. Nanolithography on polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) surface is carried out by using Atomic Force Microscope (AFM) equipped with silicon tip, in contact mode. The analysis of the results shows that the ...
متن کاملAssembly of C. elegans apical junctions
During the development of an organism, epithelial tissues provide the basis for major morphogenetic changes. Epithelial cells possess particular characteristics that are essential for their function, such as specialised cell junctions and a distinct apico-basal polarity. Two major types of subapical junctions can be distinguished by electron microscopy in epithelial cells (for recent reviews, s...

متن کاملEphrinB2 Affects Apical Constriction in Xenopus Embryos and is Regulated by ADAM10 and Flotillin-1
The Eph/ephrin signalling pathways have a critical function in cell adhesion and repulsion, and thus play key roles in various morphogenetic events during development. Here we show that a decrease in ephrinB2 protein causes neural tube closure defects during Xenopus laevis embryogenesis. Such a decrease in ephrinB2 protein levels is observed on the loss of flotillin-1 scaffold protein, a newly ...
