Abstract excerpt
Genetic studies of the Drosophila erect wing (ewg) gene have revealed that ewg has an essential function in the embryonic nervous system and is required for the specification of certain muscle cells. We have found that EWG is a site-specific transcriptional activator, and we report here that evolutionarily conserved regions of EWG contribute both positively and negatively to transcriptional activity. Using gel...
