During Drosophilaoogenesis, migration of follicle cells causes the egg chamber to rotate, changing the shape of the egg chamber from spherical to oval. Here the authors show, using live imaging, that lamellopodia on the follicle cells are required for this rotation and alignment of contractile actin bundles.
