Scavenger receptor endocytosis controls apical membrane morphogenesis in the Drosophila airways

The acquisition of distinct branch sizes and shapes is a central aspect in tubular organ morphogenesis and function. In the Drosophila airway tree, the interplay of apical extracellular matrix (ECM) components with the underlying membrane and cytoskeleton controls tube elongation, but the link betwe...
