Patterning of the Drosophila egg requires cooperation between the germline cells and surrounding somatic follicle cells. In order to identify genes involved in follicle cell patterning, we analyzed enhancer trap lines expressed in specific subsets of follicle cells. Through this analysis, we have identified tandem Drosophila genes homologous to CTP: phosphocholine cytidylyltransferase (CCT), the second of three...
