During Drosophila embryogenesis, establishment of ventral and lateral cell fates requires spatial regulation of an extracellular serine protease cascade composed of Nudel, Gastrulation Defective (GD), Snake, and Easter. Pipe, a sulfotransferase expressed ventrally during oogenesis, sulfates secreted targets that somehow confer positive spatial input to this cascade. Nudel and GD activation are pipe-independent, while Easter activation requires pipe. The effect of pipe on Snake activation has been unknown. Here we show that Snake activation is cascade-dependent but pipe-independent. These findings support a conclusion that Snake's activation of Easter is the first spatially regulated step in the dorsoventral protease cascade.
