The role of gliotactin in the formation of Drosophila septate junctions
Gliotactin is a non-catalytically active, serinesterase-like, transmembrane protein that is required for the formation of the blood-nerve barrier in Drosophila. Gliotactin is expressed by the peripheral nervous system glia, which ensheath motor and sensory axons. Pleated septate junctions present...
