Genetic control of cuticle formation during embryonic development of Drosophila melanogaster.

Genetics - 1 May 2002

Ostrowski Stephen, Dierick Herman A, Bejsovec Amy

Abstract excerpt

The embryonic cuticle of Drosophila melanogaster is deposited by the epidermal epithelium during stage 16 of development. This tough, waterproof layer is essential for maintaining the structural integrity of the larval body. We have characterized mutations in a set of genes required for proper deposition and/or morphogenesis of the cuticle. Zygotic disruption of any one of these genes results in embryonic...
