Alternative Tasks of Drosophila Tan in Neurotransmitter Recycling Versus Cuticle Sclerotization Disclosed by Kinetic Properties

Upon a stimulus of light, histamine is released from Drosophila photoreceptor axonal endings. It is taken up into glia where Ebony converts it into β-alanyl-histamine (carcinine). Carcinine moves into photoreceptor cells and is there cleaved into β-alanine and histamine by Tan activity. Tan thus pro...
