Abstract
The outer photoreceptors of Drosophila project to their targets in an extremely intricate pattern. Prakash et al. in this issue show that homophilic adhesion via N-cadherins is an essential part of the axon guidance mechanism in this system. The new results suggest that axons respond to the level of N-cadherins, and not to any combinatorial cadherin code, as had been postulated previously.
