Tre1, a G protein-coupled receptor, directs transepithelial migration of Drosophila germ cells.
In most organisms, germ cells are formed distant from the somatic part of the gonad and thus have to migrate along and through a variety of tissues to reach the gonad. Transepithelial migration through the posterior midgut (PMG) is the first active step during Drosophila germ cell migration. Here we...
