    <p>Directional cell rearrangement is a critical process underlying correct tissue deformation during morphogenesis. Although the involvement of F-actin regulation in cell rearrangement has been established, the role and regulation of actin binding proteins (ABPs) in this process are not well understood. In this study, we investigated the function of Coronin-1, a WD-repeat actin-binding protein, in controlling directional cell rearrangement in the <i>Drosophila</i> pupal wing. Transgenic flies expressing Coronin-1-EGFP were generated using CRISPR-Cas9. We observed that Coronin-1 localizes at the reconnecting junction during cell rearrangement, which is dependent on actin interacting protein 1 (AIP1) and cofilin, actin disassemblers and known regulators of wing cell rearrangement. Loss of Coronin-1 function reduces cell rearrangement directionality and hexagonal cell fraction. These results suggest that Coronin-1 promotes directional cell rearrangement via its interaction with AIP1 and cofilin, highlighting the role of ABPs in the complex process of morphogenesis.</p><p>Key words: morphogenesis, cell rearrangement, actin binding proteins (ABPs)</p>

    Measuring mechanical parameters in tissues, such as the elastic modulus of cell-cell junctions, is essential to decipher the mechanical control of morphogenesis. However, their in vivo measurement is technically challenging. Here, we formulated an image-based statistical approach to estimate the mechanical parameters of epithelial cells. Candidate mechanical models are constructed based on force-cell shape correlations obtained from image data. Substitution of the model functions into force-balance equations at the cell vertex leads to an equation with respect to the parameters of the model, by which one can estimate the parameter values using a least-squares method. A test using synthetic data confirmed the accuracy of parameter estimation and model selection. By applying this method to Drosophila epithelial tissues, we found that the magnitude and orientation of feedback between the junction tension and shrinkage, which are determined by the spring constant of the junction, were correlated with the elevation of tension and myosin-II on shrinking junctions during cell rearrangement. Further, this method clarified how alterations in tissue polarity and stretching affect the anisotropy in tension parameters. Thus, our method provides a novel approach to uncovering the mechanisms governing epithelial morphogenesis.
