In Drosophila, the adaptor protein Stardust is essential for the stabilization of the polarity determinant Crumbs in various epithelial tissues, including the embryonic epidermis, the follicular epith
We assessed the functional role of the cell polarity proteins Par3A and B in Bazooka Knockdown nephrocytes. Here, we did a proteomics anaylsis of isolated garland nephrocytes from 3rd instar larvae. A
The aim of this study was to identify target genes of the SR protein kinase SPK-1. spk-1(RNAi) leads to defects in cell polarity. We were therefore primarily interested in genes who exhibit changes in
The conserved Rho-family GTPase Cdc42 is a master regulator of polarity establishment in many cell types. Cdc42 becomes activated and concentrated in a region of the cell cortex, and recruits a variet
