Fly Dscams Can Also Help You Find the Right Partners
Abstract
The modular reiterative pattern of the fly visual system makes it an ideal model to study axon guidance and synaptogenesis. In this issue of Neuron, Tadros et al. (2016) show that Dscam2/4 promote the anchoring of dendrites to their targets.
