Developmental control of E-cadherin junctions by mechanical contractility in Drosophila embryos

Na Zhang, Wangfang Liu, Huiying Lu, Matthias Häring, Fred Wolf, Jörg Großhans, Zhiyi Lv, Deqing Kong

The paper shows that E-cadherin junctions in Drosophila embryos mature during gastrulation, with increased levels and reduced mobility, controlled by Myo-II contractility, Rho signaling, and Src42A.

A mutant bacterial O-GlcNAcase visualizes a progressive decline of protein O-GlcNAcylation in early Drosophila embryos critical for neurodevelopment

Yaowen Zhang, Dandan Wang, Haibin Yu, Xiaoyun Lei, Yang Meng, Na Zhang, Fang Chen, Lu Lv, Qian Pan, Hongtao Qin, Zhuohua Zhang, Daan M. F. van Aalten, Kai Yuan

The paper develops a fluorescent probe to visualize O-GlcNAcylation in Drosophila embryos, showing its decline during early development and its role in neurodevelopmental gene regulation.
