An analysis of the role of microtubules during tubulogenesis in Drosophila
… apical medial actin. Further to Shot, the formin Diaphanous regulates both actin and microtubules in morphogenesis, and was also found to localize to MT tips at the apical surface. Overexpression of constitutively active Diaphanous results in precocious invagination of the salivary gland. Overall …

Self-assembly of filopodia-like structures on supported lipid bilayers
… Known filopodial tip components such as Diaphanous-related formin and VASP localize to the membrane base of the structures, and bundling protein fascin to the shaft. Actin subunits assemble at the tip and translocate into the shaft. FLS assembly requires negativelycharged lipid membranes, …

Biochemical and Microscopic Characterization of INFT-1: an Inverted Formin in C. elegans
… it does not share the regulatory N-terminal Diaphanous Inhibitory Domain (DID) domain and C-terminal Diaphanous Autoregulatory Domain (DAD) domain found in mammalian INF2. In contrast to mammalian INF2, the sequence of INFT-1 starts immediately at FH1 domain and C-terminal region of INFT-1 …

Semblance
<p>My thesis exhibition consists of four large, diaphanous woven sculptures. The pieces reflect my interest in relationships that occur by juxtaposing materials and processes that possess contrasting characteristics. Using transparent nylon monofilament thread with steel rods or other linear metal …

From Cell Shape to Body Shape: Epithelial Morphogenesis in Drosophila melanogaster
… the role of DRhoGEF2 and the Rho1-effector Diaphanous (Dia) in this process. Both DRhoGEF2 and dia are required for groove formation. However, detailed analysis of their function suggests that DRhoGEF2 and Dia regulate different aspects of cytoskeletal reorganization. We find that Dia …
