Abstract excerpt
Molecular genetic analysis indicates that rhythmic changes in the abundance of the Drosophila lark RNA-binding protein are important for circadian regulation of adult eclosion (the emergence or ecdysis of the adult from the pupal case). To define the tissues and cell types that might be important for lark function, we have characterized the spatial and developmental patterns of lark protein expression. Using...
