... approaches, we show that DE-Cadherin (Shotgun – FlyBase) serves as a signalling platform for L/R asymmetry and promotes its implementation through MyoID direct binding and the additional repression of the anti-dextral activity of MyoIC (Myo61F – FlyBase), a closely related unconventional type I myosin. We...

... that Src42A is essential for proper cell-cell matching during dorsal closure. Src42A, which is functionally redundant to Src64 , was found to interact genetically with shotgun , a gene encoding E-cadherin, and armadillo , a Drosophila β-catenin. Immunoprecipitation and a pull-down assay indicated that Src42A...

... classic cadherin, DE-cadherin, which is encoded by the shotgun ( shg ) gene. The visual system is derived from the optic placode which normally invaginates from the surface ectoderm of the embryo and gives rise to two separate structures, the larval eye (Bolwig’s organ) and the optic lobe. The optic...

... for alternative targets by extending long filopodia. We present evidence indicating escargot positively regulates transcription of the D E-cadherin gene, shotgun . Overexpression of D E-cadherin rescued the defect in one of the fusion points in escargot mutants, demonstrating an essential role of D E-cadherin...
