Figure 5From: echinus, required for interommatidial cell sorting and cell death in the Drosophila pupal retina, encodes a protein with homology to ubiquitin-specific proteasesGenetic interactions between echinus and known or potential regulators of cell death in the eye. To the right is a schematic depicting known or suggested interactions between death regulators in the fly. The question mark separating Debcl/Buffy from Ark indicates the uncertainy as to the roles these proteins play in regulating Ark activation or activity. GMR-driven transgenes of the indicated genotype were introduced into the ecEPΔ4 background, or into a wildtype background in the presence of GMR-ec-SF1. For each death regulator tested, similar phenotypes were observed in the presence of GMR-ec-SF2 (data not shown).Back to article page
