✦ Synopsis

Using a double mutant strain, Pgdn Zwn, we have developed an assay for 6-phosphogluconolactonase activity and have demonstrated its occurrence in adult Drosophila melanogaster.

The genetic rescue of Pgdn lethal alleles, accomplished by combining them with mutations lacking glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase activity, has led to the hypothesis that Pgdn lethality may be due to the accumulation of 6-phosphogluconate. In this article we report the rescue of Pgdn/Y males by die

There are two structural forms of glucose 6-phosphate dehydrogenase activity in Drosophila melanogaster. Whether one or the other or both show in vitro (and probably in vivo) activity depends on the genotype of a sex-linked locus (Zw). In this article, the relative fittnesses of heterozygotes (with
