Abstract excerpt
The fruitless (fru) gene acts sex-nonspecifically in the development of the embryonic central nervous system (CNS) and has sex as well as sex-nonspecific functions in the development of the adult CNS. In the embryo, sex-nonspecific fru mRNAs and proteins are widely expressed during neurogenesis and present in both neurons and glia. To assess whether the fru gene played any role in fate determination of neuronal...
