Journal ArticleDOI
Wnt-mediated axon guidance via the Drosophila Derailed receptor
TL;DR: The results reveal an unexpected role in axon guidance for a Wnt family member, and show that the Derailed receptor is an essential component of Wnt signalling in these guidance events.
Journal ArticleDOI
Axon routing across the midline controlled by the Drosophila Derailed receptor
TL;DR: The behaviour of Drl-misexpressing neurons and the in vivo binding pattern of a soluble Drl receptor probe indicate that Drl acts as a guidance receptor for a repellent ligand present in the PC.
Journal ArticleDOI
Wnt4 Is a Local Repulsive Cue that Determines Synaptic Target Specificity
TL;DR: Single-cell microarray analysis of two neighboring muscles in Drosophila shows an important role for local repulsion in regulating cell-to-cell target specificity, and suggests that Wnt4 generates target specificity by preventing synapse formation on a nontarget muscle.
Journal ArticleDOI
The homeobox transcription factor even-skipped regulates netrin-receptor expression to control dorsal motor-axon projections in Drosophila.

TL;DR: Results support a functional link between the expression of distinct Netrin receptor combinations and the transcriptional control of dorsal motor-axon guidance in Drosophila.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Derailed Guidance Receptor Does Not Require Kinase Activity In Vivo
TL;DR: The results indicate that DRL does not require kinase activity in vivo and suggest that members of the RYK subfamily of RTKs transduce signals unconventionally.
