The Drosophila gene pointed encodes two ETS-like proteins which are involved in the development of the midline glial cells.

Abstract excerpt

Glial-neuronal cell interactions at the ventral midline are necessary for the proper elaboration of commissures in the embryonic CNS of Drosophila. In particular, migrating midline glial cells are required for the separation of segmental commissures. During this process the glial cells recognize...
