- Abstract:
-
mRNA localisation is a widely used mechanism for achieving temporal-spatial restriction of protein expression and is essential during development to establish cell polarity. mRNA localisation is particularly well studied in the Drosophila egg chamber where gurken mRNA is localised to the dorsal-anterior corner of the oocyte in a Dynein-dependent process that establishes the anterior-posterior and dorsal-ventral axes of the future embryo. An RNA stem-loop called the gu...
