The Beat generation: a multigene family encoding IgSF proteins related to the Beat axon guidance molecule in Drosophila.

Development (Cambridge, England) - 1 Nov 2001

Pipes G C, Lin Q, Riley S E, Goodman C S

Abstract excerpt

A previous genetic screen led to the identification of the beaten path (beat Ia) gene in Drosophila. Beat Ia contains two immunoglobulin (Ig) domains and appears to function as an anti-adhesive factor secreted by specific growth cones to promote axon defasciculation. We identify a family of 14 beat-like genes in Drosophila. In contrast to beat Ia, four novel Beat-family genes encode membrane-bound proteins....
