Characterisation of cell-scale signalling by the core planar polarity pathway during wing development.
Carayon A; Strutt H; Strutt D
This study looked at how cells in a developing wing become organized in a special way by moving important proteins to different parts of the cell. The researchers found that each cell has its own strong signal for organizing these proteins without relying on reducing the amount of a specific protein or moving proteins with cell structures. They also discovered that it's tricky for cells to share this cell organization idea with nearby cells.
