Summary Introduction

To review:

The explanation for accepting the fact that “Dorsal-ventral pattern information in the Drosophila egg is regulated by Gurken protein signalling”.

Introduction:

The initiation of the formation of dorsal-ventral axis is accomained by the gurken message. When the oocyte volume increses in size, the oocyte nucleus is driven by the microtubules in an anterior dorsal position. The gene gurken interact with other genes like Egfr (Drosophila epidermal growth factor receptor homolog), and cornichon to follow a signal transduction pathway for the establishment of dorsal-ventral polarity.
