HIGHLIGHTS
- who: Liyuan Sui from the Institute, Midland Road, AT London, UK have published the research: Differential lateral and basal tension drive folding of Drosophila wing discs through two distinct mechanisms, in the Journal: NATURE COMMUNICATIONS NATURE COMMUNICATIONS
- what: The authors focus on the underlying mechanical processes leading to the H/H and H/P folds. The authors show that the formation of the H/H fold involves a local decrease of ECM density resulting in decreased basal edge tension and the basal widening of cells. In these simulations, the authors considered a quasistatic folding process . . .
