Gpi-anchored fgf directs cytoneme-mediated bidirectional contacts to regulate its tissue-specific dispersion

HIGHLIGHTS

  • who: Lijuan Du from the University of have published the research: GPI-anchored FGF directs cytoneme-mediated bidirectional contacts to regulate its tissue-specific dispersion, in the Journal: NATURE COMMUNICATIONS NATURE COMMUNICATIONS of 14/05/2021
  • what: To address these questions, the authors focused on the inter-organ dispersion of a Drosophila FGF, Branchless (Bnl), during the development of the wing imaginal disc-associated air-sac primordium (ASP)19,20. The authors report that Bnl is post-translationally modified by the addition of a glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI) moiety, which anchors Bnl to the outer leaflet of . . .
