This paper describes polarized microtubule rearrangements in planar polarization of Drosophila wing hairs, and specific roles for Rac1 and CDC42 in reorganizing the actin cytoskeleton during the process of wing hair formation, Rac1 is required to restrict hair formation to a single site, and CDC42 is necessary tor actin polymerization in wing hairs.

This paper shows that both mutation and dominant-negative expression of RhoA cause planar polarization defects in the eye and the wing. Study of genetic interactions suggest it acts downstream of Frizzled, and through Jun amino-terminal kinase.

Similarities between Wingless signal transduction and signaling in planar polarization are suggested by the fact that a molecule related to the tissue polarity protein Frizzled functions as the long-sought Wingless receptor.

Inturned encodes a transmembrane protein that is 29.5% identical over 207 amino acids to the protein component of yeast mitochondrial ribonuclease P. It acts autonomously and is required in all regions of the wing for normal planar polarization.

The subcellular localizations of myosins 1β, VI, and VIIa in inner ear epithelia are determined by immunofluorescence and electron microscopy. Myosin VI is found in cuticular plates and stereocilia rootlets, where it may anchor stereocilia. Myosin VIIa localizes to cross-links between cilia and to regions within and surrounding the cuticular plate, and may maintain spatial relationships between stereocilia in hair bundles.
