Patterned cell adhesion associated with tissue deformations during dorsal closure in Drosophila.

Patterned cell adhesion associated with tissue deformations during dorsal closure in Drosophila.

Cell shape changes within epithelia require the regulation of adhesive molecules that maintain tissue integrity. How remodelling of cell contacts is achieved while tissue integrity is maintained remains a fundamental question in morphogenesis. Dorsal Closure is a good system to study the dynamics of...
