Proximal-distal leg development in Drosophila requires the apterous gene and the Lim1 homologue dlim1.

Development (Cambridge, England) - 1 Dec 2000

Pueyo J I, Galindo M I, Bishop S A, Couso J P

Abstract excerpt

Proximal-distal leg development in Drosophila involves a battery of genes expressed and required in specific proximal-distal (PD) domains of the appendage. Here we report the characterisation of a new gene of this type, dlim1, a member of the Lhx family of genes whose proteins contain two Lim domains and a homeodomain. We show that the Lhx gene apterous (ap) is also required for PD leg development, and we study...
