In Drosophila, RanBPM is implicated in the regulation of germ line stem cell (GSC) niche organization in the ovary. Here, we addressed the role of RanBPM in nervous system function in the context of Drosophila larval behavior. %U http://www.plosone.org/article/info%3Adoi%2F10.1371%2Fjournal.pone.0010652
