Expression Data
Stage Tissue/Position Reference adult stage adult head (Huber et al., 1997) adult stage photoreceptor cell R8 \| subset (Huber et al., 1997)
Additional Descriptive Data
	Rh6 is inferred to be expressed in R8 cells, as hybridization signals were detected in the basal part of the retinula cell layer, close to the R8 cell nuclei. (Huber et al., 1997) Eye-enriched transcripts determined by ratio of expression level in wild-type heads. versus expression level in so heads. (Xu et al., 2004)
