R7 photoreceptor axon targeting depends on the relative levels of lost and found expression in R7 and its synaptic partners

Jessica Douthit, Ariel Hairston, Gina Lee, Carolyn A. Morrison, Isabel Holguera, Jessica E. Treisman

The paper shows that Loaf protein levels in R7 photoreceptors and their synaptic partners determine axon targeting accuracy in Drosophila.
