The Atonal pattern evolves from expression in all cells to an over-dispersed pattern of single founder cells (the future R8 photoreceptors). This restriction involves Notch-mediated lateral inhibition. However, there have been inconsistent data on a similar proposed role for the Egf receptor (Egfr). Experiments using a conditional Egfr mutation(Egfrtsla) suggested that Egfr does not regulate Atonal restriction, whereas experiments using Egfr-null mosaic Minute+ clones suggested that it does.

We show by biochemical and genetic approaches that the Egfrtsla protein is rapidly and completely inactivated upon shift to the non-permissive temperature. We also find that on temperature shift the protein moves from the cell surface into the cell. Finally, we report a flaw in the Egfr-null mosaic Minute+ clone approach. Thus, we demonstrate that Egfr does not play a role in the initial specification or spacing of ommatidial founder cells.</jats:p> Genetic and biochemical analysis of the role of Egfr in the morphogenetic furrow of the developing<i>Drosophila</i>eye Development
