Acetylated microtubules are required for maintenance of the barrier between two adjacent tissues

Abstract: Microtubule acetylation is found in populations of stable, long-lived microtubules, occurring on the conserved lysine 40 (K40) residue of α-tubulin, catalyzed by alpha-tubulin acetyltransferases (αTATs). K40 acetylation has been shown to stabilize microtubules via enhancing microtubule resilience against mechanical stress. Here we show that Drosophila CG17003/leaky (Lky), an αTAT, is required for proper oogenesis. We found that loss of lky disrupted the cell junction between germline cyst and follicle epitheli… Show more
