title: Monoclonal antibodies which stain small subsets of neurons in the Drosophila central nervous system.
abstract: Monoclonal antibodies (MAbs) specific to small subsets of neurons in the central nervous system (CNS) of Drosophila melanogaster were described. MAbs 43A8, 45C6 and 65C11, which were obtained in fusion experiments using the third instar larval or prepupal CNS as an immunogen, stained a small number of neurons in the postembryonic CNS. Functional implications of the observed immunoreactivities during neural development in the Drosophila CNS are discussed.
