Coordinated waves of actomyosin flow and apical cell constriction immediately after wounding

Video 1.
Wound closure in a wild-type epithelium. Notum epithelium expressing mCherry-Moesin (left, red in merged image) and Spaghetti-Squash-GFP (center, green in merged image) labeling actin and myosin, respectively, highlights wound closure dynamics over 3 h. Merged channels are shown in the right panel. Images were acquired using a spinning disk imaging system (Revolution XD; Andor Technology). Frames were taken every 1 min. Bar, 40 µm.
