Cover image
Cover: GFP-CTPS and Flag-tagged CTPS form filaments together in Drosophila ovaries, from a study by Simonet and colleagues. This image shows confocal sections of two Drosophila ovarioles stained with an antibody to Flag and Dapi, which shows that the GFP tagged CTPS and the Flag-tagged CTPS form filaments together in Drosophila ovaries.
