The shaking-B gene of Drosophila encodes two functions: one specifically neural and the other required for viability. Flies carrying neural mutations show a range of defects, the best characterized of which is a disruption of some synapses in the giant fibre system, while mutations in the essential function cause animals to die as first instar larvae. We have characterised an essential transcript from this locus...
