Dynein-dynactin function and sensory axon growth during Drosophila metamorphosis: A role for retrograde motors.

Developmental biology - 1 May 1999

Murphey R K, Caruccio P C, Getzinger M, Westgate P J, Phillis R W

Abstract excerpt

Mutations in the genes for components of the dynein-dynactin complex disrupt axon path finding and synaptogenesis during metamorphosis in the Drosophila central nervous system. In order to better understand the functions of this retrograde motor in nervous system assembly, we analyzed the path finding and arborization of sensory axons during metamorphosis in wild-type and mutant backgrounds. In wild-type...
