Drosophila photoreceptor tethering by a laminin-Eys scaffold

Summary: Visual acuity in Drosophila requires precise photoreceptor alignment along the optical axis, maintained by longitudinal tension between a rigid cornea and a contractile retinal base. Here, we identify the rhabdomere caps—an extracellular matrix (ECM) structure that links rhabdomere tips to...
