Function and regulation of homothorax in the wing imaginal disc of Drosophila.

Development (Cambridge, England) - 1 Jun 2000

Azpiazu N, Morata G

Abstract excerpt

The gene homothorax (hth) is originally expressed uniformly in the wing imaginal disc but, during development, its activity is restricted to the cells that form the thorax and the hinge, where the wing blade attaches to the thorax, and eliminated in the wing pouch, which forms the wing blade. We show that hth repression in the wing pouch is a prerequisite for wing development; forcing hth expression prevents...
