... direction ( Kong et al., 2017 ). The cell behaviours associated with the extension of the germband include rearrangements of the apical cell contacts and basolateral cell protrusions ( Sun et al., 2017 ). Three different modes of cell intercalations involving the apical cell junctions have been described...

Thus PAR-6 has a widely conserved role in regulating epithelial cell junctions but epithelial cells can utilize...
