摘要: Summary The localization of oskar mRNA to the posterior Drosophila oocyte defines site assembly the pole plasm, which contains abdominal and germline determinants [1–3]. requires polarization microtubule cytoskeleton, depends on recruitment PAR-1 cortex in response a signal from follicle cells, where it induces an enrichment plus ends [4–7]. Here, we show that overexpressed localizes middle oocyte, as well posterior. This ectopic premature translation Oskar protein, recruits microtubule-plus-end markers center instead pole, indicating regulates polarity cytoskeleton. also plays role normal oocyte; mutants disrupt or strongly reduce ends. Thus, is required stabilize amplify polarity, generating positive feedback loop increase cytoskeleton's polarization, turn directs more mRNA.
