How do myosin patterns influence cell behavior and tissue movements? New research from @MechCU @Columbia in the special “Biophysics in Development” issue presents new optogenetic tools for observing the effects of myosin patterns in fruit fly embryos. ow.ly/CM4350GmcCu

Using optogenetics to link myosin patterns to contractile cell behaviors during convergent extension

Distinct patterns of actomyosin contractility are often associated with particular epithelial tissue shape changes during development. For example, a planar-polarized pattern of myosin II localizat...
