Tissue-specific expression of phospholipase C encoded by the norpA gene of Drosophila melanogaster.

The Journal of biological chemistry - 25 Jul 1993

Zhu L, McKay R R, Shortridge R D

Abstract excerpt

Mutations in the norpA gene of Drosophila melanogaster severely affect the light-evoked photoreceptor potential with strong mutations rendering the fly blind. Molecular cloning of the norpA gene revealed that it encodes phosphatidylinositol-specific phospholipase C, which enzymes play a pivotal r...
