Abstract excerpt
The Drosophila ninaC gene encodes for two head-specific proteins of 132 kDa and 174 kDa. Their predicted amino acid sequences indicate that they may have myosin I and kinase properties. We have: (1) determined the cellular and subcellular distributions of the ninaC proteins in the Drosophila retina by electron microscopic immunocytochemistry with an antibody specific for epitopes shared by both proteins; (2)...
