Asymmetric Notch activation specifies photoreceptors R3 and R4 and planar polarity in the Drosophila eye.

Nature - 11 Feb 1999

Fanto M, Mlodzik M

Abstract excerpt

Planar polarity is seen in epidermally derived structures throughout the animal kingdom. In the Drosophila eye, planar polarity is reflected in the mirror-symmetric arrangement of ommatidia (eye units) across the dorsoventral midline or equator; ommatidia on the dorsal and ventral sides of the equator exhibit opposite chirality. Photoreceptors R3 and R4 are essential in the establishment of the polarity of...
