| Abstract |
Clathrin-mediated endocytosis plays essential roles both during and after development, and loss-of-function mutants affected in this process are mostly not viable. Different approaches have been developed to circumvent this limitation, including resorting to mosaic model organisms. We here describe the use of FLP/FRT-mediated mitotic recombination to generate Drosophila melanogaster having homozygous mutant eyes while the rest of their body is heterozygous. We then present a detailed protocol for assessing the consequences of these loss-of-function mutations on endocytosis in the photoreceptors of living fruit flies by recording electroretinograms. |

Attention Score in Context
This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 1. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 23 August 2018.
All research outputs
#19,015,492
of 23,577,654 outputs
Outputs from Methods in molecular biology
#8,199
of 13,410 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#258,121
of 334,835 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Methods in molecular biology
#164
of 250 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 23,577,654 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 11th percentile – i.e., 11% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 13,410 research outputs from this source. They receive a mean Attention Score of 3.4. This one is in the 24th percentile – i.e., 24% of its peers scored the same or lower than it.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 334,835 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 12th percentile – i.e., 12% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 250 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 23rd percentile – i.e., 23% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
