The atypical cadherin Flamingo is required for sensory axon advance beyond intermediate target cells.

Developmental biology - 15 Mar 2009

Steinel Martin C, Whitington Paul M

Abstract excerpt

The Drosophila atypical cadherin Flamingo plays key roles in a number of developmental processes. We have used the sensory nervous system of the Drosophila embryo to shed light on the mechanism by which Flamingo regulates axon growth. flamingo loss of function mutants display a highly penetrant sensory axon stall phenotype. The location of these axon stalls is stereotypic and corresponds to the position of...
