Olfactory physiology in the Drosophila maxillary palp requires the visual system gene rdgB.

Journal of comparative physiology. A, Sensory, neural, and behavioral physiology - 1 Dec 1994

Riesgo-Escovar J R, Woodard C, Carlson J R

Abstract excerpt

We describe the kinetics of odorant response in the maxillary palp of Drosophila, and show that the rate of recovery from odorant stimulation is affected by mutation of the rdgB (retinal degeneration B) gene. We use immunocytochemistry to confirm that the rdgB gene product is expressed in the maxillary palp. rdgB has recently been shown to encode a protein with Ca(2+)-binding sites and sequence similarity to rat...
