rosy Function is required for juvenile hormone effects in Drosophila melanogaster.

Genetics - 1 Jan 2008

Zhou Xiaofeng, Riddiford Lynn M

Abstract excerpt

Application of a high dose of juvenile hormone (JH) III or its mimics (JHM) to Drosophila at the white puparium stage causes the formation of a pupal-like abdomen with few or no short bristles. We report here that the rosy (ry) gene encoding the enzyme xanthine dehydrogenase (XDH), which catalyzes the final two-step oxidation in purine catabolism, is required for this effect of JH on the epidermis. In ry506 (null...
