Cadherin-Dependent Cell Morphology in an Epithelium: Constructing a Quantitative Dynamical Model

Cells in the Drosophila retina have well-defined morphologies that are attained during tissue morphogenesis. We present a computer simulation of the epithelial tissue in which the global interfacial energy between cells is minimized. Experimental data for both normal cells and mutant cells either la...
