Keeping wing cells in line
ell polarity in fly wing cells is set with extraordinary precision. Out of the distal end of each cell grows an actin-rich protrusion known as a wing hair. Although the wing contains over 30,000 epidermal cells, it produces this distal-specific hair pattern without error. C Wing hairs are locally aligned but lose distal orientation when the global Ft signal is disturbed. and colleagues indicate...
متن کاملSmall RNAs: Keeping Stem Cells in Line
Stem cells and RNA silencing have emerged as areas of intense interest for both basic and clinical research. Recently these fields have converged with reports implicating small regulatory RNAs in the maintenance and pluripotency of stem cells.
متن کاملCadherin signaling: keeping cells in touch
Cadherin-catenin complexes are critical for the assembly of cell-cell adhesion structures known as adherens junctions. In addition to the mechanical linkage of neighboring cells to each other, these cell-cell adhesion protein complexes have recently emerged as important sensors and transmitters of the extracellular cues inside the cell body and into the nucleus. In the past few years, multiple ...
متن کاملKeeping the Noise Down in ES Cells
A new report (Szutorisz et al., 2006) suggests that embryonic stem (ES) cells adopt an unusual strategy to remain perpetually poised for differentiation. Apparently, ES cells use the proteasome to target transcriptional preinitiation complexes, thus minimizing transcriptional noise at genes that promote differentiation.
متن کاملDPP shapes up wing cells
DPP shapes up wing cel ls PP is not a savior for fly epithelial cells, according to new reports from Matthew Gibson and Norbert Perrimon (Harvard Medical School, Boston, MA) and from Jie Shen and Christian Dahmann (Max Planck Institute, Dresden, Germany). Once thought to be a survival factor in the wing imaginal disc, the DPP morphogen is now shown to regulate cell architecture. Previous experi...
