Abstract excerpt
The Enhancer of split gene complex [E(spl)-C] of Drosophila melanogaster harbors seven highly related genes encoding transcriptional regulators with a basic helix-loop-helix (bHLH) domain. They are activated by the Notch signaling pathway in order to inhibit proneural gene activity, for example, during neurogenesis in the developing embryo. The E(spl) proteins are at least partly redundant, despite some...
