Control of the expression of the bithorax complex genes abdominal-A and abdominal-B by cis-regulatory regions in Drosophila embryos.

Development (Cambridge, England) - 1 Feb 1991

Sánchez-Herrero E

Abstract excerpt

The abdominal-A (abd-A) and Abdominal-B (Abd-B) genes of the bithorax complex (BX-C) specify the identity of most of the Drosophila abdomen. Six different classes of infraabdominal (iab) mutations within the BX-C transform a subset of the parasegments affected by the lack of these two genes. It is thought that these mutations define parasegmental cis-regulatory regions that control the expression of abd-A and...
