Ten different Polycomb group genes are required for spatial control of the abdA and AbdB homeotic products.

Development (Cambridge, England) - 1 Feb 1992

Simon J, Chiang A, Bender W

Abstract excerpt

Mutations in genes of the Polycomb (Pc) group cause abnormal segmental development due to ectopic expression of the homeotic products of the Antennapedia and bithorax complexes. Here the requirements for Pc group genes in controlling the abdA and AbdB products of the bithorax complex are describe...
