Regulation of proboscipedia in Drosophila by homeotic selector genes.

Genetics - 1 Sept 2000

Rusch D B, Kaufman T C

Abstract excerpt

The gene proboscipedia (pb) is a member of the Antennapedia complex in Drosophila and is required for the proper specification of the adult mouthparts. In the embryo, pb expression serves no known function despite having an accumulation pattern in the mouthpart anlagen that is conserved across several insect orders. We have identified several of the genes necessary to generate this embryonic pattern of...
