Abstract excerpt
Vulval cell-fate determination in Caenorhabditis elegans requires the action of numerous gene products, including components of the Ras/Raf/MAPK signaling cascade and the hox gene lin-39. sem-4 encodes a zinc finger protein with previously characterized roles in fate specification of sex myoblasts, coelomocytes, and multiple neuronal lineages in C. elegans (M. Basson and R. Horvitz, 1996, Genes Dev. 10,...
