Evidence for a Role of the Lateral Ectoderm in Drosophila Mesoderm Invagination
The folding of two-dimensional epithelial sheets into specific three-dimensional structures is a fundamental tissue construction mechanism in animal development. A common mechanism that mediates epithelial folding is apical constriction, the active shrinking of cell apices driven by actomyosin contr...
