Cdc42 GEF Tuba regulates the junctional configuration of simple epithelial cells

Epithelial cells are typically arranged in a honeycomb-like pattern, minimizing their cell–cell contact areas, which suggests that some tension operates for shaping of the cell boundaries. However, the molecular mechanisms that generate such tension remain unknown. We found that Tuba, which is a Cdc...
