Abstract excerpt
The Drosophila norpA gene encodes a phospholipase C involved in phototransduction. However, phospholipase C apparently is not directly involved in phototransduction in vertebrate photoreceptors, although light-activated phospholipase C activity has been reported in vertebrate rod outer segments. Conserved regions of norpA cDNA were used to isolate bovine cDNAs that would encode four alternative forms of...
