Abstract excerpt
The Drosophila homolog of schizophrenia susceptibility gene dysbindin (Ddysb) affects a range of behaviors through regulation of multiple neurotransmitter signals, including dopamine activity. To gain insights into mechanisms underlying Ddysb-dependent regulation of dopamine signal, we investigated interaction between Ddysb and Ebony, the Drosophila β-alanyl-monoamine synthase involved in dopamine recycling. We...
