Brain patterning defects caused by mutations of the twin of eyeless gene in Drosophila melanogaster.

Fly - 1 Jan 2000

Furukubo-Tokunaga Katsuo, Adachi Yoshitsugu, Kurusu Mitsuhiko, Walldorf Uwe

Abstract excerpt

The Drosophila Pax6 genes, eyeless (ey) and twin of eyeless (toy), are expressed in both eyes and the brain. Previous studies have demonstrated that ey plays important roles in axonal outgrowth and differentiation of mushroom bodies (MBs), which are centers for associative learning and memory in flies. However, the functional significance of toy in brain development is poorly understood. Here, we describe the...
