Body axis elongation is a fundamental morphogenetic process, involving cell shape changes powered by mechanical forces through small incremental steps which need to be stabilized. During my PhD, I studied C. elegans embryonic elongation to define how the embryo, an elastic material, lengthens progressively upon muscle contractions. Previously, the lab found a kinase, PAK-1, to be mediator of an epidermal mechanotransduction pathway downstream of muscles. Two screens in a pak-1(Ø) background identified α-spectrin SPC-1 as an interactor of PAK-1. spc-1(-)pak-1(-) embryos elongate up to 1.5-fold and then retract to 1-fold in a muscle dependent manner. I used super-resolution microscopy to show that epidermis circumferential actin bundles are h...
