Immunolocalization of a Drosophila phosphatidylinositol transfer protein (rdgB) in normal and rdgA mutant photoreceptor cells with special reference to the subrhabdomeric cisternae.

Abstract excerpt

Distribution of rdgB protein, which was recently shown to be a Drosophila phosphatidylinositol transfer protein, was studied in the photoreceptor cells of compound eyes of normal and rdgAPC47 mutant of Drosophila melanogaster by immunoelectron microscopy using (1) pre-embedding HRP staining, (2)...
