Abstract excerpt
Retinal degeneration-B (rdgB) mutants of Drosophila melanogaster undergo rapid light-induced retinal degeneration. We conducted a molecular characterization of the rdgB gene to examine the nature of the gene product. Through the isolation and analysis of X-ray-induced rdgB alleles, the cytogenetic position of the gene was determined to be the 12C1 salivary region. Genomic DNA corresponding to this region was...
