Abstract
Epithelial cell morphology is essential for cellular homeostasis, but the mechanisms by which cell shape is established remain unclear. In this study, Marivin et al. (2022. J. Cell Biol.https://doi.org/10.1083/jcb.202111002) identify DAPLE as a linker between polarity complexes and the actomyosin network at apical junctions. By recruiting CD2P and activating Gαβγ-mediated RhoA signaling, DAPLE ensures proper cell shape and function.Entities:
