Hox gene control of segment-specific bristle patterns in Drosophila.

Genes & development - 1 May 2002

Rozowski Marion, Akam Michael

Abstract excerpt

Hox genes specify the different morphologies of segments along the anteroposterior axis of animals. How they control complex segment morphologies is not well understood. We have studied how the Hox gene Ultrabithorax (Ubx) controls specific differences between the bristle patterns of the second and third thoracic segments (T2 and T3) of Drosophila melanogaster. We find that Ubx blocks the development of two...
