Role of the amnioserosa in germ band retraction of the Drosophila melanogaster embryo.

Developmental biology - 1 Oct 1999

Lamka M L, Lipshitz H D

Abstract excerpt

As the germ band shortens in Drosophila melanogaster embryos, cell shape changes cause segments to narrow anteroposteriorly and to lengthen dorsoventrally. One of the genes required for this retraction process is the hindsight (hnt) gene. hnt encodes a nuclear Zinc-finger protein that is expressed in the extraembryonic amnioserosa and the endodermal midgut prior to and during germ band retraction (M. L. R. Yip,...
