RE: Steemit Usernames Written In the Genetic Codes

in #steemstem8 years ago

Yes C. elegans geneticists are so envious of Drosophila gene names. My favourite fly gene names are:
cheap date ( mutants have low ethanol tolerance)
Indy (for I'm not dead yet- mutants live twice as long)
roundabout (an axon guidance receptor- mutants have axon that go around in circles)
dreadlocks (another axon guidance gene- mutants have axons that clump together resembling dreadlocks) @reggaemuffin might appreciate this gene!
Tin man (mutant have no heart)
Ken and Barbie ( mutants lack external genitalia)
