β¦ Synopsis
The polarized organization of epithelial cells is expressed in many ways including the morphology of the cell surface or cytocortex, the molecular composition of membrane domains and the distribution of cytoplasmic organelles. The differentiation of mouse trophectoderm is described
with particular attention given to the maturation of the endocytic system in an attempt to define how the complex assembly of an epithelium may be generated.
