Abstract excerpt
Rab6 is a GTP binding protein that regulates vesicular trafficking within the Golgi and post-Golgi compartments. We overexpressed wild-type, a GTPase defective (Q71L), and a guanine nucleotide binding defective (N125I) Rab6 protein in Drosophila photoreceptors to assess the in vivo role of Rab6 i...
