pubmed:abstractText
In Drosophila melanogaster, the protein product of the yellow gene is necessary for normal pigmentation and male sexual behavior. Although one of the best characterized loci from a genetic standpoint, the function of the Yellow protein in the development of either phenotype is unknown. Here I propose that Yellow acts as a growth factor- or hormone-like molecule in the development of pigmentation and sexual behavior, and discuss the consistency of this theory with experimental observations in flies and humans.
