Discordant Responses to MAPK Pathway Stimulation Include Axonal Growths in Adult Drosophila Photoreceptors

Wallenda (WND) is the Drosophila member of a conserved family of dual leucine-zipper kinases (DLK) active in both neuronal regeneration and degeneration. We examined the role of WND over-expression on sensory neuron morphology by driving WND in multiple subtypes of Drosophila photoreceptors. WND ove...
