The sidekick gene, a member of the immunoglobulin superfamily, is required for pattern formation in the Drosophila eye.

Development (Cambridge, England) - 1 Sept 1997

Nguyen D N, Liu Y, Litsky M L, Reinke R

Abstract excerpt

In the Drosophila eye imaginal disc the photoreceptor cells (R cells) differentiate according to a precise spatial and temporal order. The sidekick (sdk) gene is necessary to prevent extra R cells from differentiating during eye disc development. The extra cell appears between R3 and R4 early in R cell clusters and is most likely the result of the mystery cell inappropriately differentiating as an R cell. Mosaic...
