摘要: Abstract The Drosophila visual mutant rdgA is known to show age-dependent retinal degeneration with defective diacylglycerol (DG) kinase activity. In this study we examined DG activity of several mutants and found that only eyes showed the lack in a gene dosage-dependent manner. enzyme already absent at time eclosion from pupal case when not yet apparent. To examine whether dosage effect holds for other enzymes related phosphatidylinositol turnover, phospholipase C was analyzed which did any effect. Therefore, it strongly suggested correlates closely activity, defect primary cause mutant.
