Article Synopsis
  • Genetic screens help pinpoint genes tied to biological processes, with a focus on growth control in developing eyes through EMS mutagenesis.
  • One mutant line was examined using the FLP/FRT system and analyzed for genetic mapping through student-led efforts in the Fly-CURE consortium.
  • The study revealed a nonsense mutation in a gene linked to spectraplakin, which is important for cytoskeletal organization and influences cell growth and proliferation.
