ovo/svb integrates Wingless and DER pathways to control epidermis differentiation.
Nature - 15 Jul 1999
Payre F, Vincent A, Carreno S
Abstract excerpt
In Drosophila, as in mammals, epidermal differentiation is controlled by signalling cascades that include Wnt proteins and the ovo/shavenbaby (svb) family of zinc-finger transcription factors. Ovo/svb is a complex gene with two genetic functions corresponding to separate control regions: ovo is required for female germline development and svb for epidermal morphogenesis. In the Drosophila embryo, the ventral...
