<b>Apical enrichment of <i>stardust</i> transcripts</b>

The Stardust protein is a key regulator of apical identity in polarized epithelia. Dynein-dependent apical localization of certain stardust mRNA isoforms may also play a functional role in apico-basal polarity regulation. The image shows the apical enrichment of stardust transcripts (green puncta) in the Drosophila follicle cell epithelium (see Horne-Badovinac and Bilder, e8).
