Expression and cellular localization of the Toucan protein during Drosophila oogenesis.
Mech Dev, 90(2):289-92.
The toucan (toc) gene is required in the germline for somatic cell patterning during Drosophila oogenesis. To better understand the function of toc, we performed a detailed analysis of the distribution of the Toucan protein during oogenesis. Toc expression is restricted to the germline cells and shows a dynamic distribution pattern throughout follicle development. Mislocalization of the Tocprotein in mutant follicles in which the microtubule network is altered indicates that microtubules play a role in Toc localization during oogenesis.
