A corset function of exoskeletal ECM promotes body elongation in Drosophila

Tajiri et al. describe how the cuticle coating the Drosophila larval body expands less efficiently along the body circumference than along the anteroposterior axis to drive body elongation. This “corset” property depends on cuticular proteins Cpr11A and Tubby, which may work together to change larva...
