Before a Drosophila embryo has cells, actin furrows hold its nuclei apart. A 2026 paper in J Cell Biol shows Bitesize bundles F-actin to help stabilize these boundaries. One piece of the scaffold. More to map. doi.org/10.1083/jcb.202306071 #Developmenta…

RP @jcb.org: Yeh, Martin @mit.edu et al examine the #Drosophila synaptotagmin-like protein Btsz in early embryo nuclear divisions, identifying a role for regulating pseudo-cleavage furrow stability. They show that Btsz bundles #actin filament networks i…
