Deskripsi
Large-scale tissue reorganization requires the generation of directional tension, which requires orientation of the cytoskeleton. Here Chanetet al. alter tissue shape and tension in the Drosophilaembryo to show that geometric and mechanical constraints act as cues to orient the cytoskeleton and tension.
