    Abstract

    The Lkb1/Strad/Mo25 complex can polarize single epithelial cells, leading to the formation of a brush border containing microvilli on the apical surface. In this issue of Developmental Cell, ten Klooster et al. show that the Lkb1/Strad/Mo25 complex mediates two separate pathways, and that both are required for assembly of apical microvilli.
