Lunatic Fringe?
[edit source]Wow. Just stumbled on this article randomly. Very curious about the origin of the ~nickname and surprised there's no explanation here. There must be a story behind whoever started calling it this... DKEdwards (talk) 12:12, 9 March 2021 (UTC)
- Oh, on closer inspection I see there is one understated reference (https://www.nature.com/news/2006/061106/full/news061106-2.html) It's kind of interesting and might merit a brief mention in the main text. DKEdwards (talk) 12:23, 9 March 2021 (UTC)
- I agree: it would be informative if an explanation was given in the main text. ACLNM (talk) 13:21, 9 March 2021 (UTC)
- An explanation would indeed be helpful! However, the link above doesn't provide an explanation beyond that the gene was named such when it was first discovered in fruitflies. Joe vom Titan (talk) 14:09, 30 November 2025 (UTC)
