09-P015 Oct4 controls apical ectodermal ridge integrity and function during limb bud development
with P-orthophosphate. sycorax embryos show strong accumulation of rRNA precursors and a decrease in 18S and 28S rRNA species, suggesting a defect in processing. In mammals, disruption of ribosome biogenesis leads to nucleolar stress and induction of apoptosis through activation of the tumour suppressor, p53. To investigate whether the defects in rRNA processing in sycorax mutants result in p53...
متن کاملRac1 controls epithelial tube length through the apical secretion and polarity pathways
The morphometric parameters of epithelial tubes are critical to the physiology and homeostasis of most organs. In addition, many human diseases are associated with tube-size defects. Here, we show that Rac1 limits epithelial tube elongation in the developing fly trachea by promoting Rab5-dependent endocytosis of the apical determinant Crumbs. Rac1 is also involved in a positive feedback loop wi...
متن کاملAn Ichor-dependent apical extracellular matrix regulates seamless tube shape and integrity
During sprouting angiogenesis in the vertebrate vascular system, and primary branching in the Drosophila tracheal system, specialized tip cells direct branch outgrowth and network formation. When tip cells lumenize, they form subcellular (seamless) tubes. How these seamless tubes are made, shaped and maintained remains poorly understood. Here we characterize a Drosophila mutant called ichor (ic...
متن کاملLulu Regulates Shroom-Induced Apical Constriction during Neural Tube Closure
Apical constriction is an essential cell behavior during neural tube closure, but its underlying mechanisms are not fully understood. Lulu, or EPB4.1l5, is a FERM domain protein that has been implicated in apical constriction and actomyosin contractility in mouse embryos and cultured cells. Interference with the function of Lulu in Xenopus embryos by a specific antisense morpholino oligonucleot...
متن کاملTpx2 controls spindle integrity, genome stability, and tumor development.
Tpx2 is a microtubule-associated protein that activates the cell-cycle kinase Aurora A and regulates the mitotic spindle. Overexpression of Tpx2 is associated with the development of different human tumors and strongly correlates with chromosomal instability. By analyzing a conditional null mutation in the mouse Tpx2 gene, we show here that Tpx2 expression is essential for spindle function and ...
