Endocytosis-mediated cell death is a form of degeneration displayed in several Drosophila mutants. This form of degeneration is displayed in several Drosophila mutant lines including flies lacking the eye-specific PLC (norpA). The cell death pathway is initiated by the stabilization of complexes bet...
