The proneural gene amos promotes multiple dendritic neuron formation in the Drosophila peripheral nervous system.

Neuron - 1 Jan 2000

Huang M L, Hsu C H, Chien C T

Abstract excerpt

In the Drosophila peripheral nervous system, proneural genes direct the formation of different types of sensory organs. Here, we show that amos is a novel proneural gene that promotes multiple dendritic (MD) neuron formation. amos encodes a basic-helix-loop-helix (bHLH) protein of the Atonal family. During embryonic development, amos is expressed in patches of ectodermal cells, and the expression is quickly...
