Spatial and Temporal Coordination of oskar mRNA Localization and Translation During Drosophila Oogenesis
In the fruit fly, Drosophila melanogaster, accumulation of osk mRNA at the posterior pole of the oocyte and local translation initiate assembly of the pole plasm, which is required for germ cell formation and posterior patterning of the embryo. I have used fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH)...
