Senseless, a Zn finger transcription factor, is necessary and sufficient for sensory organ development in Drosophila.

Cell - 4 Aug 2000

Nolo R, Abbott L A, Bellen H J

Abstract excerpt

The senseless (sens) gene is required for proper development of most cell types of the embryonic and adult peripheral nervous system (PNS) of Drosophila. Sens is a nuclear protein with four Zn fingers that is expressed and required in the sensory organ precursors (SOP) for proper proneural gene expression. Ectopic expression of Sens in many ectodermal cells causes induction of PNS external sensory organ formation...
