ABSTRACT Proper muscle contraction requires the assembly and maintenance of sarcomeres myofibrils. Although protein components myofibrils are generally known, less is known about mechanisms by which they individually function together synergize for myofibril maintenance. For example, it unclear how disruption actin filament (F-actin) regulatory proteins leads to weakness observed in myopathies. Here, we show that knockdown Drosophila Tropomodulin (Tmod), results several myopathy-related...

During development, the corneal epithelium (CE) and conjunctiva are derived from surface ectoderm. Here we have examined how, during cells of these two issues become isolated each other.
