Nociceptive neurons of <i>Drosophila melanogaster</i> larvae are characterized by highly branched dendritic processes whose proper morphogenesis relies on a large number of RNA-binding proteins. Post-transcriptional regulation of RNA in these dendrites has been found to play an important role in their function. Here, we investigate the neuronal functions of two putative RNA modification genes, <i>RluA-1</i> and <i>RluA-2</i>, which are predicted to encode pseudouridine synthases. <i>RluA-1</i> i ...[more]
