Abstract excerpt
Ultraspiracle (usp) encodes the Drosophila cognate of RXR, the human retinoid X receptor. To examine how RXR subfamily members function in development, we have undertaken a phenotypic analysis of usp mutants. usp is required at multiple stages of development for functions that occur in a wide variety of tissues. usp is required in the eye-antennal imaginal disc for normal eye morphogenesis and in the somatic and...
