Expression of AarA in Drosophila can directly rescue phenotypes associated with viable mutations in different fly rhomboids. (a) rho-1veinlet alleles are characterized by extensive loss of wing venation. (c) Wing-directed expression of AarA in the mutant completely rescues this phenotype (the mutant wings shown also carry the genetic marker hairy). (b) rho-3roughoid deletion results in malformed eyes with collapsed and blistered ommatidia. (d) Expression of AarA in the mutant partially rescues the retinal patterning defects.
