Interacting genes that affect microtubule function in Drosophila melanogaster: two classes of mutation revert the failure to complement between haync2 and mutations in tubulin genes.

Abstract excerpt
The recessive male sterile mutation haync2 of Drosophila melanogaster fails to complement certain beta 2-tubulin and alpha-tubulin mutations, suggesting that the haywire product plays a role in microtubule function, perhaps as a structural component of microtubules. The genetic interaction appear...
