Loss of G[subscript α12/13] exacerbates apical area-dependence of actomyosin contractility

During development, coordinated cell shape changes alter tissue shape. In the Drosophila ventral furrow and other epithelia, apical constriction of hundreds of epithelial cells folds the tissue. Genes in the G[subscript α12/13] pathway coordinate collective apical constriction, but the mechanism of...
