The genetic analysis of snf: a Drosophila sex determination gene required for activation of Sex-lethal in both the germline and the soma.

Genetics - 1 Mar 1992

Salz H K

Abstract excerpt

Our analysis demonstrates that snf is a positive regulator of Sex-lethal in both the germline and the soma. In the germline, unregulated expression of Sex-lethal can bypass the requirement for snf+ gene function, implying that snf is required for Sex-lethal activity in the germline. This conclusion is supported by the finding that the Sex-lethal transcription pattern is abnormal in a snf mutant background. In the...
