Abstract:Accumulating evidence suggests the evolutionarily conserved Ras/mitogen activated protein kinase (MAPK) signaling pathway directs distinct biological consequences that depend on distinct intensity states. Given this intensity-dependence, we hypothesized that different levels of Ras/MAPK signaling may be subjected to regulation by different sets of proteins. To identify such 'differential' signaling modifiers, we turned to the Drosophila eye as a model. First, we created flies whereby mutant active Ras V12 expr… Show more
