Tubular endocytosis drives remodelling of the apical surface during epithelial morphogenesis in Drosophila

During morphogenesis, remodelling of cell shape requires the expansion or contraction of plasma membrane domains. Here we identify a mechanism underlying the restructuring of the apical surface during epithelial morphogenesis in Drosophila. We show that the retraction of villous protrusions and subs...
