General Information

General Information Comment Organism
malfunction loss of rhomboid blocks the induction of rhodopsin5 expression and misexpression of rhomboid leads to the inappropriate induction of rhodopsin5. Activated Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor is is sufficient to rescue the loss of Rh5 induction in a rhomboid mutant Drosophila melanogaster
physiological function rhomboid is required cell-autonomously within the R8 photoreceptor cells and non-autonomously elsewhere in the eye for rhodopsin5 induction Drosophila melanogaster
