A complex role for distal-less in crustacean appendage development.

Developmental biology - 15 Jan 2002

Williams Terri A, Nulsen C, Nagy L M

Abstract excerpt

The developing leg of Drosophila is initially patterned by subdivision of the leg into proximal and distal domains by the activity of the homeodomain proteins Extradenticle (Exd) and Distal-less (Dll). These early domains of gene expression are postulated to reflect a scenario of limb evolution in which an undifferentiated appendage outgrowth was subdivided into two functional parts, the coxapodite and...
