sidestep encodes a target-derived attractant essential for motor axon guidance in Drosophila.

Cell - 6 Apr 2001

Sink H, Rehm E J, Richstone L, Bulls Y M, Goodman C S

Abstract excerpt

At specific choice points in the periphery, subsets of motor axons defasciculate from other axons in the motor nerves and steer into their muscle target regions. Using a large-scale genetic screen in Drosophila, we identified the sidestep (side) gene as essential for motor axons to leave the moto...
